if the city controls this can be advantageous when it comes to data protection but most cities lack the technical expertise to process and analyze the data for this reason many cities cooperate with big tech companies they have the capacity and the algorithms needed to work with data analysis like google sign . to the alphabet corporation it will construct an entire district of tarantulas within you is technology of course but the data 17 states with corporations like alphabet which is problematic as they use our data to make money. i mean tire city state and that's really offers many opportunities so what to do experts argue for so-called data utilities these are publicly financed but in. organizations they managed controlled access to data anyone interested in developing smart city solutions could use them no matter if city owned business local startup or big company a promising approach i think everyone should be able to profit from data and data utilities personal data is anonymised as a citizen i cannot influence which state of mine is being used to. decode a project by the europea

directors probably the toughest job that i am aware of in city government. this has not been an easy hall. i will say, and just to pick up on something that phil just said , the thing that i've always appreciated about you is your perspective on the city as a whole. i remember the first department head meeting i went to with mayor newsom at the time, and he asked each of us to make a comment about our roles about who we were. and i had been here all of two weeks or something at the time. ed's comment was something that stuck with me. he was basically about his passion for his cities and his passion for doing this work. and to me, you have always been the definition of a public servant. i have appreciated that very much. when he think about your comments and questions at capital planning, or the director's working group, or other venues were all the directors are together, i think about your perspective on the city as a whole and what our role is and what we should be doing with our work. i want to thank you for that. for being a mentor for me in that respect, and

city hall. these are just some of the priorities we are funding in this budget. i am proud of the investments we are making and proud of the city we are working to build. i really want to thank everyone who put time into helping with this budget including the budget team and budget option director kelly. thank you for your hard work and thank you to ben from the controller's office and your work. thank you to harvey rose and the budget afternoon r analyst -- analyst team who is not going to touch the money i am proposing in the budget. you know, so many people have been working tirelessly day in and day out to get the budget done, and i am so excited about this. i want to end by talking about a young man named wallace pullet. we are so proud of wallace. you know, life hasn't been easy for him. he grew up with the violence i talked about earlier. he faced challenging times, including his own challenges with the law. unlike so many others, we lost to violence or the criminal justice system, wallace worked through all of those challenges. he is now focusing on doing

cities on. but in hong kong this is becoming the norm. protest his tactics have changed. rather than targets one building and wait for the police to clear them. move along their aim is maximum destruction across the city be like water they tell each other everyone. on sunday they marched 1st to china's liaison office in hong kong on route some hid behind umbrella's as they use spawn is to break apart fences gathering the metal foot barricades. finding pleece protecting their 1st targets they moved swiftly on. taking metro trains to the shopping district of kools wife a. then they built barricades used pliers to cut the wires of traffic lights and stopped traffic people over there disabling traffic lights that taking apart barry is this. particular grows with. the roles actually we try peaceful means and a bad person and he responds and so we try to increase may be increased pressure by our broken heroes and so the more people interrupt. and we try to do it just it was just brown message but you faithful that's the way they say in this room is that china might send in its o

this new kitchen. in 2007, just to give you an idea, we served 523,000 meals in the city and delivered them, and this year 2 # -- 2.1. think about that growth. we were touching the lives of about 2,000 individuals u unduplicated in the city. now we're touching over 5,000 a year. that growth has been predominantly in seniors, but we've also in that ten-year period worked with the department of aging and adult services to serve those people who are under 60 represents about 50% of our population and also we're partnering with the food bank to deliver groceryies to about 500 people a week in the department of aging and also working with this mayor and administration to make sure that people in inactinavigation cens have meals. we're very grateful to be a part of that effort as well. it mabelibecame quite clear abo years ago that we needed a plan to deal with this. we first conducted a full-scale operation ental review. is there any way that we don't need to build a new kitchen? is there anything else we need to do? that plan basically was pretty simple and straightforward and said, hey, you need to get out o

place where everyone want to live in in san francisco, and they will be a part of the future of this great city. no one will be left behind as a result of this great project, so thank you to john stewart and john stewart company. thank you so much to bridge housing and cynthia, to kate, to supervisor peskin, and all the community members and the people who helped make this possible. this is truly san francisco at its best, and there is more to come. thank you all so much. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: sorry. i want to introduce john stewart, but i want to just say that i met john stewart over 20 years ago. and i used to work at treasure island, and some of you remember when that housing was empty, and it was vacated by the navy, and we have the task of rehabilitating those units and moving formerly homeless veterans, formerly homeless families and other people of all incomes into treasure island. the partnership with john stewart company was not just a partnership that helped to rehabilitate those units, they also helped to make sure that those formerly homeless families and veterans had

this new project. i am the director of public works here at the city of san francisco. nt to thank you all for coming out our chief and mayor for coming to celebrate this milestone. this facility will be a facility that will serve our first responders and we are very excited about it. just last week around the corner we celebrated the new deployment facility and that is a project that will be completed in 2021. that project also is going really well. then today we are celebrating another capital infrastructure project here in the bayview. this job is not only about serving our first responders, but will also give a lot of people from the community jobs. it will be able to give a lot of our contractors an opportunity to participate in bringing supplies. of course make our city more resilient. it's also been one of several projects that the southeast sector of our city has been benefitting from. just in the last two years or so we finished the medical examiner's building, the two shops for large and small vehicles are right around the corner. coming up soon is the new sout

but this city of houston, this state of texas, this country of the united states was not built by those who waited and rested and wished to look behind them. [ applause ] >> this country was conered by those who moved forward and so will space. william bradford, speaking in 1630 of the founding of the plymouth bay colony said that all great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulty. both must be interpreted and overcome with courage. if this capsule mist of our progress teaches us anything, it is that man in his quest for knowledge and progress is determined and cannot be deterred. the exploration of space will go ahead whether we join in it or not. and it is one of the great adventures of all time. and no nation, which expects to be the leader of other nations can expect to stay behind in this race for space. those who came before us made certain this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention and the first wave of nuclear power. and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of spac

yes, we still have a number of challenges in this city, a number of important investments that we know we need to make, in this board of supervisors spend countless hours listening to the public, listening to me, sometimes, but ultimately, putting together what i believe is a very comprehensive budget that is fair, that is equitable, that makes new investments, and that is really focused on accountability, as well. and it was under the leadership of president of the board who had the vision to appoint sandy fewer as the budget chair because he knew that she would not take any mess from her colleagues and they all put forth their ideas, but ultimately, she wanted to make sure that this was a consensus budget, and everyone had something to be proud of. thank you to both supervisor fewer and president yee for your leadership. thank you to rafael mandel and who is here today. incredible advocates and supporters for the communities and incredible advocates and supporters for residents of the city. i also would like to thank our budget team and kelly kirkpatrick who is the director of the bu

they've been an incredible partner in this city. at this time, i'd like to introduce another incredible partner, someone who's helped on the legislative side and continues to advocate for not only resources for san francisco, but continues to push the envelope around the kinds of transit options that we need to make san francisco and the bay area a more transit friendly, a more efficient place to move people around, that's assembly member david chu. >> thank you, madam mayor. san francisco, are we ready for basketball? are we ready for the warriors? so i was trying to think of something pithy to say that would be appropriate for this day. this is what i'll say in four words: this is the station for dub nation. all right. this is ride, this journey, has been long in coming. i was just talking to rick wells about how it was eight years ago when i was serving as president of the san francisco board of supervisors, i got a call about the possibility that the warriors might move to our great city. a lot as happened over that time. i remem

but more than that injustice, is the fear that their way of life in this city will change. sia's great financial cities. for the most part, the protests here are limited to the weekend, during the week, people get on with work, get back to business. but there's a new reality emerging for companies here that they're having to adapt to. for decades, multinationals have flocked to hong kong for its stability and access to china, but now they're having to make some difficult decisions about the future. the decision is, does toeing the line with beijing now damage my global market, or do i — do i kowtow now and protect my position on the mainland? that is the big decision people are making. it's a contrast that veterans here have always understood. allan zeman built this city's iconic entertainment district he has seen it all: from colonial hong kong to a china—backed one. i have been in china for more than 35 years. i understand that these are the rules if you want to do business here, then abide by our rules. but the rules in hong kong have always been different from those in c

i say that because i appreciate all the work in this city that everyone does. ur police chief, fire chief, naomi kelly, and especially our mayor to say we need to look at this, we need to do this now, and being so creative for doing this. i want to thank everyone for coming to district 5. it's nice and foggy here, but cool you down a little bit before you go back to your job. so thank you, everyone. and the next speaker -- are you going to bring him up? all right. thank you. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: thank you, supervisor brown. and just a reminder, anyone can go to sf72.org if you want to get prepared for any emergency situation in san francisco. a lot of great information from emergency management. sf72.org. now i want to introduce someone who's ae be who's been a 25-year veteran of the san francisco fire department and has a very thorough knowledge of how to deal with emergency situations and is why she is currently serving as the chief of the department. please welcome jeanine nicholson. >> good morning, everyone. i love our san francisco summer w

. >>> this city is filled with heartbreak tonight among those grieving, the family of a woman who died here yesterday while shielding her 2-month-old infant from the gunfire. i spoke with her family this afternoon. >> how do you feel about being a mom? >> again >> again. >> happy >> reporter: just two months ago, jordan gave birth to her third child, a beautiful baby boy named paul yesterday jordan was one of 20 people tragically killed at this el paso walmart. >> she was incredible. she had a personality that could light up an entire room. everybody loved her. she was an incredible mom, too she's just a wonderful person. she would give anything for those kids, anything even her life. >> 24-year-old jordan and her husband andre had taken the baby to the store to buy school supplies for their older daughter when they heard about the shooting, jordan's sister and her parents immediately tried to get in touch with the couple. >> i texted them, we're at the unification center, praying to god you're on the bus and you'll be here. but they didn't come >> reporter: jordan had been shot the fa

but that is because of the president's history, as you pointed out, with this city. the president -- in all my times being here and covering immigration and what's going on at the southern border, has virtually never described accurately the realities on the ground in this city. it's one of the safest big cities in america. in fact, the violence that was perpetrated here as we all know well by now was perpetrated by a man who drove hundreds of miles to come here and terrorize latinos in this community. the president says it's an invasion. he says there is an infestation. we've heard the language of this president that directly contradicts the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the people of this city. so it's no surprise that people i talk to that live in this city are not interested in hearing what the president has to say when he comes to el paso today. that doesn't mean he won't have an opportunity to try and unite the country and unite this city, but i can tell you from experience, the people in this city, at least many of them, are no fans of the president of the un

we are going to march them out of this city until they stop coming back, because we are not going to alex zielinski has more on who attended the protests. in this particular protest there are a lot of protesters from across the country specifically to join in the far right protests which were organised by a national group called the proud boys. the man who organised it is actually based in florida. he's not very familiar with portland or portland politics. meanwhile, the left—leaning groups and the groups, the majority of them are from portland, and live in portland, and have been coming up to these protests to oppose our local alt—right and far—right groups for some time. riot police have cleared roads in hong kong after a standoff with pro—democracy protesters, as the political crisis in the city continues for an 11th week. earlier, thousands of teachers took to the streets in a peaceful show of solidarity. from hong kong, john sudworth reports. hong kong's summer rains have done nothing to dampen the fury. most of it directed at the police, now seen as agents of a hostile state by

talking in in hong kong and of beijing experimenting with this city have they lost control of the laboratory the laboratory that is right hong kong right now for the chinese government and are events taking on a life of their own there one see it is out of control of beijing never controls hong kong in the remaining but conscious of the public image in the international words the situation home call is like it is hong kong trying to be the part of the one country 2 systems that are part of the one of the 2 systems and well what they demanding a democracy and rule for all this written into law and that's what the dimona beijing is not ready to give them the freedom ok to 2 countries to use 2 systems as long as you can train one of the systems is clearly totalitarian the one in beijing hong kong has been frayed to this point a baronet you say hong kong is on its way to becoming a police state. at least the police have played a role in the last couple of weeks that i think has surprised a lot of hong kong as because in hong kong there was a lot of trust in institutions and then the police and t

ina in a year's time, this city will be hosting the pa ralympic in a year's time, this city will be hostinghe paralympic games and not only are we seeing 4000 odd athletes arriving with all kinds of disabilities, there will also be disabled media and spectators. live from our studios in singapore and london, this is bbc world news — it's newsday. good morning. it's 7am in singapore, midnight in london and 8pm in brazil where wildfires continue to rage across the amazon rainforest. brazil's president jair bolsonaro says his government lacks the resources to fight the fires and said that countries that give money to preserve the amazon interfere with brazil's sovereignty. but conservationists have blamed his government for what's happening, saying the president has encouraged the clearing of land by loggers and farmers. the french president emmanuel macron added his voice to those concerned. he tweeted: "our house is burning. literally." he said wildfires in the amazon were an international crisis and called on this weekend's g7 to address the issue. camila mota sent this report from sao paul

and few spots epitomise this ideal better than one of the city's 5—star destinations. a few years ago to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the hotel and when you look through it, it really gives you an idea of the calibre of celebrity that have stayed here. i mean, they've got marlon brando, there's bridget bardot, even the great muhammed ali. —— brigitte bardot. i was coming to the phoenicia since the beginning. we used to do fashion shows here, and this is a very special hotel. mona ross is an international model who was based in beirut before the war. wow! mona ross! take a seat! now she is a permanent resident of the hotel. i mean, it's part of my life. i consider i'm part of the columns of the phoenicia. maybe i am! you are part of the furniture, yeah? part of the furniture! yeah, you're part of the fabric of the whole hotel! when the war came, the hotel became a battleground, a key strategic point because of its size and downtown location. i was passing by next to the phoenicia when it was destroyed and saw a little plant, hibiscus plant, with little red flowers

this is how chinese state media are presenting the situation in hong kong as a city in chaos with mass protesters prepared for violence. only accuse of being bandits and terrorists. this is the chinese government's take on the temporary occupation of hong kong airport today we express our strongest condemnation of this new terrorist act and express our deepest condolences to the injured mainland compatriots and hong kong police. the newspapers are also full of images of violence this propaganda seems to be plausible for some citizens who didn't i think that it's ok to take to the streets in protest in a normal way but you shouldn't destroy public order and carry out violent acts only terrorists do that kind of thing. state media have also been showing these images of troop exercises in on the border with hong kong. but will china really resort to arms to crush the resistance in hong kong. what do you think about chinese a propaganda aimed at hong kong and the rest of china how effective is that different is that we heard from sherry this offer effective in hong kong what about on mainl

we — these young people, of course, they are the future of this city.t to be responsible. and again, more importantly, this extradition bill saga highlights the fact that this system, the current political system, cannot represent people's interests, and so we're demanding that we could have universal suffrage in this city. and just let me remind everybody here, that is also something stated so clearly in the basic law. that is the mini—constitution of hong kong. but you never had it under the british. you're asking of china what you were never given by the british. they never gave you universal suffrage. they put it as an aspiration in the basic law, but they never gave it to you. but it was beijing's promise, stated so clearly in the basic law. and we were supposed to have them in 2007, 2008. we have already had a long delay. but do you think that britain, when it signed up to the deal with china, engaged in a certain degree of self—delusion about what would actually happen in reality? well, let's put it this way. the british government, of course, th
