the slide shows ramsey county in 2016. there's a much bigger regional picture that impacts us as well. the minneapolis-st. paul greater twin city's region population of color will more than double by 2040. that's our projection, a little different than here. while the nonhispanic white population will remain about the same, as it is depicted on the slide today. the region is depicted as an immigration gateway and it's expected that we will grow by thousands of new residents through international immigration through 2040. as i said, we welcome this growth, as we do believe that diversity is a strength in the global marketplace. i want to share just a few more statistics then about our demographics. overall in ramsey county, we are home to colleges and universities, more than any other county in minnesota. and ramsey county's education statistics look pretty good. of residents 25 and over, 16% have a graduate or professional degree, as compared to 11.2% nationally. 90% have completed high school. 40.4% have a bachelor's or hi

the second slide shows the existing condition and the bottom slide shows the changes that we intend to make in that facade by removing one historic -- the nonhistoric mezzanine in the middle of the interior. it allows the partial restoration of the railroad opening up to the second height. which will be transparent through the bulkhead building. next slide. this is the north facade. always get confused. anyway, this is a north facade. and the same layout on the left. you see as built. as it is now. very, very different. and then you'll see as we intend to rehabilitate it and partially restore the rhythm of the original openings and for the railroads, historically for the railroads which you'll be able to see all the way through. yes. and here's again the south facade as it is and the south facade as it will be restored in this case. to its original look. the interior programme, again there's no integrity to the interior or little integrity to the interior. we will be removing and retaining the top floor and in doing so allows us treatment of opening up the railroad opening so you can s

so the next slide is a summary of the annual expenditures by category.r personnel covers 3.35ftes. that is two communiques positions. one well-being fte along with the manager and crack analyst who work on the open rollment and other trust related activities that i discussed in the presentation for the general fund. the only category that has any kind of fluctuation is the communications category. and that's due to implementation of e-benefits. the amount of print materials is expected to decrease as more information is available online as we go forward with the implementation of the e-benefits. so as we moved forward to having more guides online and more information online that, is a trajectory of how we are going to go. but we do anticipate small savings. the next summarizes the one-time expenditures. they are primarily for the e-benefitsiver mentation replacement of the system to voiceover internet protocol voice. that and the website redesign. we hope to beiverments that soon. i will talk about the redesign. the crack is almost executed and we will b

the skill of steering the slide through the corners, controlling the pressure, avoiding the little bumps of a second. the suits help but you still have to start fast and drive well. and have nerves of steel? absolutely, that really helps. how cool and calm was lizzie on that final run? she put down a track record that meant she had the two fastest times in the race of the first run and fourth run, the biggest pressure runs. the true hallmarks of a champion. let's not forget laura as well. fantastic final run. it gave laura the opportunity to win a bronze. a brilliant day for british winter sports. three medals we probably wouldn't have thought about going into the day. a sensational performance by team gb. a very happy simon timpson. ukip have voted to remove their leader henry bolton after less than six months in the job. 63% of party members supported the motion of no confidence, following the controversy over racist messages sent by his then partner. the party will now have it's fourth leadership election since 2016. the interim leader is gerard batten, one of the party's mep‘s. henry

are you moving the slides? because the slides aren't moving. >> oh, my slides aren't moving there. o. >> just so -- >> thank you so much. >> we can follow along, but the viewers will not be. >> sorry about that. social equity, workforce development and business ownership. so, for retail licensing -- i'm sorry. in our discussion on retail licensing, we made 44 recommendations. i'm sorry. i think i really did -- no, i'm sorry. we are actually back in the old slide. we were talking about consumption under that as well. because that is talk about temporary event and farmer's markets, for example. they should be allowed. i'm sorry about that. here we go. so woe are talk about consumption lounges in both of these areas, the nonretailz and the retail because the nonretail would be a lounge where you are able to bring your own cannabis to consume. so, there wouldn't be any purchasing involved in that when we are looking at people living in section eight housing, low-income individual, they shouldn't have to be pressured to purchase merchandise in other words to have a safe consumption area.

getting back on track with the slide, again, our challenges remain with the electrical subcontractor's pace of delivering milestones, the e-2 pylons are kind of the struggle out on the park because that's moving very nicely, the park in general. but these pylons are continuing to be promised next week, next week. and yet again, i heard they're arriving next week. web core has some individuals going down this week to visit the plant and see what's going on with the manufacturer and delivery of these items. recently you have heard a lot of worry about completion and energizing the power distribution bottles and i'm pleased to hear all the physical work is complete. i was looking into it, and i learned that there was a series of miss steps over the past year in terms of installation by various contractors and maybe some by puc as well, but we have navigated through that, everything is in place. i understand there's a scheduled review for volk acceptance next wednesday on the 14th. we should have that behind us and then last, another risk has been the state of completion of inspection read

again going back to the slide i showed before. some beds are for one night and some are for 18 months. and in the pathway to housing beds they are unlimited until you get housing. we have a wide range of different types including the youth. it is a very big system with a lot of moving parts to it. >> vice chair ronen: i would love to chime in here. i couldn't agree more with my colleague, jeff sheehy. and this is something that you and i have been arguing about for quite some time, jeff. i'm actually looking into legislating around this point because i don't think it is an either or proposition. i think we have to start being honest about what we need to solve our street homelessness crisis in this city. if we just keep sort of working around the edges and adding a couple of beds here and there and having individual supervisors fight to get a navigation center in her district and solve the problem in her neighborhood only, we are going to continue to have san francis franciscoians get fed up. before mayor lee passed away, he made a

and on the slide -- i just noticed on the report, this morning, that changes were made from tuesday to really focus in on the cumulative progress as retail is being brought on. the last item i wanted to share with you was regarding -- a follow-up on the cac item we have been tracking closely, the integrated planning efforts to address and support issues associated with the potential homelessness population that could be attracted to the center. at our meeting december 5th, 2017, the staff facilitated a multi agency panel discussion of coordinated response to quality of life issues in the trans bay neighborhood. this was done in response to request to understand the proactive approach being planned to provide support services to the potential homeless population that could be attracted to the transit center, a premier public facility and neighborhoods around the center. this started about 18 months early with the request to have detailed plans presented prior to the opening of the center, specifically procedures and protocol in the center and surrounding neighborhoods focused on safety,

the two young koreans have got everybody excited here at the olympic sliding centre. the start house now wisconsin's matt antoine. >> matt was disappointed with his start times yesterday. see if he can improve. if you are making sure you're taking deep breaths, keeps your muscles ox gentlemen nated, you can feel weaker at the start. >> the air came out of the balloon after the bronze in sochi. he has to dig deep personally to get over that and to rebuild and to head towards these pyeonchang games that's been a wonderful spirited effort and he said a wonderful thing about this sport, you get four runs at the games so i have two more chances the kind of make up for my errors on the opening day. >> that's right. looking for the small improvements. i know that's planning on doing better but it's the little victories out of the first heat. >> antoine's third run here at the olympic sliding centre is complete. on what has been a challenging time here in south korea. challenging for antoine and challenging for the rest of the field to try and catch this guy, korea's yun sung-

if you think the yacht is the least trustworthy person on the slide, cebu now. so the robot is more trustworthy and the president of the united states but you don't need to worry about that right now. do this in reverse. now you can clap. so i'd like you to class for the company you think is the most trustworthy. if you think google is the most trustworthy company on theslide, clap now. >> . [applause] >> facebook, who thinks facebook is the most trustworthy company on the slide. >> no one, okay. amazon. now, i think amazon and google were i don't know, maybe amazon is slightly ahead but it says here it's an exercise but i made him do it because i thought that one of you might say to me rachel, trust them to do what? and this is a really important point and it's something that i find very hard when i open up a newspaper or i listen to the media that the way we're talking about trust is a very general term. it's very dangerous. because you know, we can trust that president trump will to something ridiculous at 3 am.we don't trust him to negotiate with north korea.

if you think sophia is the least trustworthy person on the slide say boo now. so the robot is more trustworthy than the president of the united states but we don't need to worry about that right now. let's do this in reverse. you can clap. i'd like you to clap for the company you think is the most trustworthy. if you think google is the most trustworthy company, clap now. [applause] >> facebook him who thinks they. >> is the most trustworthy company on the slide? no one. okay, amazon? [applause] so i think amazon and google were, i don't know, maybe amazon was slightly ahead but it's certainly a rubbish exercise but i thought one of you might say to me rachel, trust them to do what? this is a this is a really impot and it's something that i find very hard when it opened up the newspapers or i listen to the media or the way we're talkback trust is in these very, very general terms. it's actually very dangerous because we can trust that president trump will tweet something ridiculous at 3 a.m., but we don't trust him to negotiate with north korea. we contrast even

i am going through a highlight or two on each of the slides. in the state of good repair side, the leading investment here advancing the maritime objectives is dredging 14% of the overall capital budget, that maintenance is essential for continued use of the port's deep water birds. further down the list of state of good repair investments, here we see routine maintenance such as dry docking of the fluteses to improve -- floats to improve the assets. on enhancement the first two projects listed are projects which we are requested general fund dollars. one highlight is the peer 90 project for planning and design. we will see construction when we come back with a full five year capital improvement program for safety as well as for making more real estate saint for achieving the vision of the 8096 industrial strategy. further on the enhancements and safety we see fire investments including continuing funding of the fire protection engineer at the port as well as one of the projects identified through the work of fire protection engineer pier 31 new

welcome to the sliding centre, whereas you can hear, the atmosphere is absolutely incredible. it is a gold medal for the german is absolutely incredible. it is a gold medalfor the german pair. it was a dramatic ending because the americans thought they had it. right at the last, the germans put them, with canada in third place. for great britain, also a fantastic night, finishing in eighth place. which means it is the best ever finish for the british women's bobsleigh team in olympic history. women's bobsleigh came into the olympics in 2002. in four attempts, no british pair had done better than this one. that will be a fantastic boost for them and surely plenty more for them to come in the future olympic games. let's hearfrom them now. five months ago, we didn't know if we would even be here. so to get here is an achievement in itself. we've just loved every minute of it and we want to say thank you to eve ryo he and we want to say thank you to everyone who supported us. thanks to herfamily everyone who supported us. thanks to her family and friends. it's been incredible. it'

. >> the slide has been a popular spot for generations of san franciscans. local artists, activists and employees. you can find the park tucked away on avenue in the heights. it's cared for by a group of volunteers. what makes this place so special, side by side, 40-foot slides that can bring a smile to children and adults. as one of the kids who was lucky enough to have grown up in san francisco, it's been a very special place to me for a long time. i'm sure once you ride the slide, you'll know why. >> it's important to remember that these parks are maintained by neighbors. their gems of san francisco and we want thome keep shining -- them to keep shining. ment so >> we hope you enjoyed exploring city the with us. >> do you have a favorite public space? share it with us in the comments below. until next time, thank you for joining us on public works tv. >> i am public works. >>> we are live now.

>> reporter: good morning from the sliding center -- good evening, thank you, tracy. this is all where it all goes down for a bucks county bobsledder jamey greubel poser is her name. she had two runs yesterday. you can see the backdrop where the olympians stand waiting to see if anyone's going to beat their score. with today's two runs she's got her eyes set on gold. no gold, silver, or bronze for team usa men's hockey unfortunately. they were eliminated last night. the final seconds against the czech republic were still undefeated. it ended in a heart breaking overtime shootout in which the units just couldn't score. bobbi san kwu netty reflected on the loss. >> we learn from our mistakes and start to build off of that, but it's tough to swallow. >> reporter: and bobbi is one of four local olympians on that team going to go home from pyeongchang without a medal. the women's team on the hockey rink they go onto play canada tonight for a gold medal. so they're guaranteed silver. they're going for gold, and they look good, guys. things are looking up there and things are

much has been made of the slide in the stock market in recent days. but overall it is still up more than 25% since president trump took office. >> it's a reminder you need a little perspective on all these things. on the one hand it is probably political folly for any politician in this case the president i suppose or any party to put too much political stock in stock market numbers. they go up and down. you don't want to be responsible for the slide which you cannot really control. on the other hand the environment has been pretty good for republicans in part because of a rising stock market over the last year as you say. and they have been counting on improving economic confidence that emerged from that environment to be their best argument in the mid-term elections this year. i think one of the things the slide in the stock market this week does is raises the question is the edge taken off of that confidence a little bit? you know, it's a reminder how long there is to go and how many things can happen before november. >> jon: one of the lines in yo

out how to get from venue to venue, right now, we are on the top of the mountain that will host the sliding sports. the bob sled, skeleton and luge, yesterday, we did check out a different venue. >>> from pyeongchange to the dmz is not far. if you want to see it, it's an early morning hours long bus ride across the country to where the only spot in the break in the fence in the world's most guarded border and. >> please do not take pictures or record anything. >> now we are at the line, they are allowing us to get our cameras recording and what we see, is north korea. that large stone building on the other side is in north korea. the blue buildings that you see lining here, they are property of the united nations, but the bored between north and south korea runs through each of them. >> walk in front of him or behind him, that side is north korea and that side is south korea. this room intended for negotiations is staffed by south korean militarmilitary, one gua blocks the door at the northern end of the building. buns you walk past the table in the middle, you are in north korea. there's a

joe lynskey reports on british joy at the sliding centre. ter sports, britain aren't supposed to dominate. no—one told lizzy yarnold, though. lizzy yarnold, what a performance! the first british athlete to successfully defend her olympic title. she went into her final run behind the reader. she needed rperfection, she got it. a new track record to put yarnold outfront. but in this sport, nothing's sealed until the close. the austrian had a chance to win it. yarnold wins gold again! is it more relief than enjoyment? exhaustion, really! after the first run, i almost pulled out of the contest because my chest infection was so uncomfortable and i couldn't breathe. my physio kept talking to me and said, you can do it, you can do it. if it wasn't for my team, i wouldn't be here. i'm so grateful to all of them. and great britain had more medal joy, laura deas taking bronze. they're getting used to dominance in this sport, in women's skeleton, it is now gb gold three games in a row. in the hours after her win, lizzy yarnold posted on social media ‘i

now to the slide i started talking about wrongly before. so character is our word for a type of service, and as you can see, the aid payments character grew substantially. this is mainly as a result of the increase in the ihss moe. there are some smaller growth in contract services, which includes mainly dignity fund and -- and clf-supported services, but that's mainly what's changing here. so in coming up with our budget submission, we actually went through revenue projections for all of the parts of the human servic services agency, including daas. there are a number of areas where it looks like revenues are going down, in our cal mesh and cal works programs, and others where it's going up. for example, our medi-cal eligiblity programs, these are entirely an artifact of what's happening in the state budget, so cal fresh program is shrinking budgetarily because budgets are shrinking stayed wide, which is the sign of a good economy. fewer people are eligible. that's true for cal works, as well, which is tied to employment and unemployment ra

this is a good spot to allow storms to go up and over the ridge and slide down the west coast. portland got its heaviest february snowfall in about 25 years and it's going to snow again tonight. in low will slide down the coastline, but the problem is if it's coming from the gulf of alaska or canada and not tapping into the ridge of tropical moisture to our south, there's not that much moisture to it. we'll see some showers in the north bay tomorrow morning, some light showers throughout the day basically hugging the coastline. accumulating snow is possible above 2,000 feet and friday less wind and more sunshine. speaking of that wind, tomorrow morning we'll see wind gusts upwards of 20 miles per hour. after the front passes we could see winds as strong as 32 miles per hour. hold onto your hat, blustery tomorrow with light scattered showers. if you have outdoor plans for the weekend, the ridge builds back closer to us, a little milder with less wind. scattered showers tomorrow but blustery for all of us throughout the day, drier, a bit milder friday through the weekend. inland v

can anything halt the slide? we discuss that next. ♪ ♪ yousef: welcome back to the best of "bloomberg markets: middle east" riyadh the property market in dubai has been struggling lately. prices are as much as 71% of below their 2008 peak. tracy alloway and i got to talk to the head of research at a real estate investment firm there. >> i would not necessarily use the word recovery to describe the property market. values have been sliding for three years, and as you pointed out, there are several markets remaining well below the 2008 peak. the escrow affect is something we have been waiting for and we know the government has plans to invest up to 300 billion in a project to host the expo. we hope that will increase demand for residential and commercial property we had we are still waiting for that effect to come through 2.5 years out. location is still very important to potential buyers. we have also seen the resilience in places like discovery gardens city, at theonal other end of the spectrum. it tells us that price volatility is an

so to the slide two which provided the proposed changes. the summary we provided in december, but i'll give you a quick review, regarding the lafco general fund appropriatation. this is $297,000 of new dollars which is included in this draft budget. this is the maximum amount that lafco is entitled to each year for the government code. you might recall that the lafco positions were eliminated during the last budget cycle. as lafco is currently in the process of hiring a qualified contractor through a request for qualification of the rf2 and their funding needs are still being assessed. we are employing a different approach to lafco's funding approach. we submitted an estimated amount of what lafco believes will be their request for the budgets year only. since the lafco does not adopt its budget until june and only then on a yearly basis. so, this created a technical issue when the request would come in and on occasion it was higher in june. based on the outcome of conversations that we've had with the mayor's office, we are submitting the

let's look at the next slide as well. the western style slide? >> no, this is a variation of that. once again you see seven swords patterned after the 7 traditional sorries of our lady. this is from ecuador. again, it shows this depiction that -- it depicts this prophesy of simeon a sword shall enter your soul. there are a variety of sorries that are depicted, symbolized through seven swords. the flight into egypt, the loss of the child and the temple. the meeting of our lady on the villadelarosa. the crucifiction itself. the taking down from the cross as he is laid in her arms. the famous piata would depict that reality. all of these express her sharing in the passion of her son in a way unique to herself. her sorryful heart. >> when i see the innocent woman, i feel if my heart were evil and cruel, why inflict that on her? >> and yet she because she enters into that passion is able to know the fullness of joy, the joy of resurrection, she who shares fully in the cross and burying of the tomb shares fully be the resurrection, she is known as the joy of all who sorry. the comforter o

moving on to the next slide, this is the southeast health center component. it's located off of third street and keith street in the bayview neighborhood. the team is working on the design phase of a new two story 22,000 square feet new building adjacent to the facility. construction anticipated to start in 2019. here is kind of the most updated rendering we have for the new building whereas -- as a matter of fact this afternoon we'll present to the city design review for the first phase with cdr. okay. and moving on to the community health center component. there's two projects that the team is primarily focused on currently. cash emission health center at 17th and pawn and maxime hall at pierce and ellis in the western edition neighborhood. both are targeted to start construction december of 2018 in a couple of months. as i mentioned earlier, one of the huge impacts or risks on this component is the fact that we have added seismic scope to both health centers. both projects have been deemed to be a seismic hazard rating of three plus to four. four is a buil
