a that's an interesting idea, however, to only make larger units in exchange for sixth smaller units and inferior location is not doing anything by which this project is contributing given the finding smaller units dealing with the issue of the dwelling units and this is a trade from medium size to larger your description is somewhat accountant misleading no existing rear yards particularly because you're asking for veterinarians of what is already a variance previous arrangement the conditions of the pud barely meets today's requirement of open exposure now having 5 units facing next to a dog run didn't do it for me the units are small studio units they'll be permanently in the dark to the rest a tall church building that passes the entire rear yard a 15 foot sliver smaller a length of a parking space i think those are tenement units and i can't support what we're moving forward in this city rob pertaining to paw paul and saying we're creating housing stock we're not we're diminishing the housing authority housing stock i walk from polk all the way to - i've seen this building for t

sounds like great but i think they're not real units their fake units in their not liveable units i think you have to deny the cu and do the following keep the breezeway, keep the trees eliminate the garage and use that space for better units guess so continue the peak roof all the way down per commissioner antonini's e-mail for the project sponsor and no big box on the back i mean, i want to remind the size of the units it is compatible luxury building with 3 used 3 baths units those are 17 hundred square feet it is 24 approximately each unit there is a lot of give and take can be done and especially this is a cu he hope i'll consider that thank you very much. >> thank you, ms. comment? >> seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioner antonini. >> thank you. i've spent more time on this project probably than any other before us in the last few years i did make a site visit and was lucky enough to be able to go through the entire building and i don't know how this rating is done but i think that is very lowly rates two things that are obvious first of all, the lower what was a

this is the problem with the united states. you have to look for a statesman who has real experience in politics for years. not because to have position in congress for few years or minister of foreign affairs, for example. that doesn't mean you have the experience. the experience in states could be much, much stronger. so we don't think that most of the presidents of the united states were well versed in politics. >> so a man with no experience in foreign policy, in the white house, is not necessarily dangerous, in your view? >> if anyone who doesn't have experience in any position, a white house or in the presidential palace in syria, or another country, of course it's dangerous for the country generally. of course the united states as a great power, it could have more impact on the rest of the world, but it's not only about the experience. when you have institutions, they can help. it's about intention. is it going to be with good experience, but with militaristic intentions, and so on. so you have to talk about many factors

they were united in their conviction that the united states that have defense and rhey were meant to hated wa and were dedicated to peace. not one of these five men, and a president in our history believed that america should ask academy for peace on terms that would betray our allies and destroyed respect all over the world. [applause] as your president, i pledged that i shall always uphold that proud bipartisan tradition. standing in this convention hall, i proud -- i doubt to d to end the-- vowe war in vietnam. we have ended our combat role. casualtiesuced our by 90%. we have gone the extra mile. in fact, we have gone tens of thousands of miles cap to seek a negotiated settlement to the war. we have offered cease-fire, a total withdrawal of all american forces in exchange of all prisoners of war. internationally supervised free elections with the congress participating in the elections. the, and we will offer. we will never abandon our prisoners of war. [applause] second, we will not join our enemy in imposing a communist government on our allies of 17 million people of south viet

less in terms of square footage size per units. >> we deal with numbers of units versus size of units and i think from my philosophical vantage point this program will build more units. i would hope to build more quality units that are on the face livable high quality units and think space is a big part of that, which is why i spick with the mayor's office of housing 350 for studio and 550 for one bedroom. i think that is praety modest and reasonable but do think that supervisor wiener raised a interesting thing, which is if you utilize that space and there is space left over i think you thereare ways to deal with that, wrun is utilize the balance of a space provides it meets building code minimums or give the zoning code admip strairt for ordinances. >> will you be open to language of that effect? >> i'm open to either concept which is if people build minimum suz in larger unit they-any left over space can be used for a additional unit. >> it seems to me if i am comfortable living in a small unit, smaller than 3 fifen 0 i should be the one to make that decision, not a advocacy or par

stay in the united states. i would not be able to tell you right now. i just know. some of them are -- local sheriffs offices and offices where they pay for space and some are run by private contractors. i'm not surprised. it's hard to find out exactly how many. yes, sir. >> suppose someone comes from a country and they have an objective fear of persecution and while they are -- while the case is being adjudicated, the regime is overthrown and the subjective fear would disappear. so, in these cases, does any pattern emerge whether the asylum is revoked because there is no longer a fear or once granted, is it permanent? renee: technically it's not permanent, but i have never heard of anyone having an revoked. particularly after someone gets a green card. at these are people granted asylum from a certain country, not expected to go back to that country. which -- i have seen people have their asylum taken away for doing that. >> wasn't a factor in one of these tsarnaev brothers -- renee: yes. yes, ma'am. >> years

undoubtedly, for mexico, it is very important for the united states to do well, and for the united states to have a strong economy, and for the united states it's also very convenient for the mexican economy to also do well. and your next madam president or president will find in mexico a strategic partner to face economic issues that we share, and all the challenges that we share. i would like to reiterate president barack obama my appreciation for your hospitality for this fraternal meeting, and for everything. because this is tracing the route and the promise that we can continue working together as sister nations and neighbors. and i reiterate my broadest recognition, president obama, for being invariably a great friend of mexico. thank you very much. >> we have time for a few questions, starting with kevin cork. >> thank you, mr. president. wondering if you had a chance to take in the rnc last night, get your reaction to the comments made by the republican presidential nominee. and specifically, how do you counterbalance as we look ahead to philadelphia, how do you counterbalance wha

we have information for 130-103 of the unit out of the 135 units, so that information on the unit size i provided on average was the average of those 103 unit that we have the information for. the reason that -the additional information provided today is the breakdown of that average. while the average is higher than the minimum size, when you look at the permits one by one, there are 35 of them that fall under that average or minimum size. >> what you are saying is, out of the total universe of 135, which is a small sample size in the grand scheme of things, you have information for 103 and of that information that the representation you made last week, which is that the average one bedroom is 600 square feet and average studio is 375 square feet, so can you break down for us as to the 103 for which you have information presumably we have to have a number of them that are significantly larger than 600 square feet to comp sate for 35 units. out of your 103, how many are one bedrooms? >> 59. >> and how many of those 59 are under 550 square feet? >> i don't have that breakdown right now

this then brought the united states directly into the war. and more directly into the problems of refugees coming out of europe and in particular the focus of my discussion. a very important event happens in the american jewish community that is not in my attention adequately understood or prioritized. and that is a meeting in new york city at the biltmore hotel in 1942, in which a conscious decision was made at that time to, of course, embrace the win the war strategy as the number one priority, but in terms of -- within the jewish community, the number one strategy internal to the community would be jewish statehood and palestine. the conscious decision was then to relegate, rescue to the third level, that that was not going to be the primary interest of the community. for celler himself, though, he couldn't accept that and he couldn't deprioritize it. he immediately gets to work in different areas, for example, he learns that, like everyone else from the regular rigor telegram about the final solution, and at the moment there was a particu

states and china and the united states and russia. we don't have those channels and the relationship with russia. partly because putin and russia tends to be a bit of a one-man show. it's deny difficult to purely a one-man show in china given the sheer size of the politics and the population and the still very strong presence of the chinese communist party. i guess president xi is more of a big poplar figure than some of the predecessors have been. and he's been accused on some sides of creating a for americanized presidency. that's paled in comparison. so we have real difficulties in figuring out how to structure that relationship. that was in part of the reset was about in the early parts of the obama administration. different layers and structures set up to manage the relationship. it wasn't just about the two men on the top. because given the nature of the russian/u.s. relationship. it's unlikely that president obama and president putin are going to have the same frequency of meetings. there's less to talk about in many respects a

he said the united states has to lead the effort. it is the only country that has ever used nuclear weapons and warfare against another country. that is where i want to begin today. on the one hand, there is a certain hypocrisy in what is going on. in 1945.em begins back it has progressed to the point where how many countries have nuclear weapons now? nine exactly. nine countries have nuclear weapons today. how many nuclear weapons are there in the world today? approximately. we know a lot about climate , what and global warming seems to be the threats to our existence. i would argue this -- of the existencereat to our is still nuclear annihilation. there are just a little under 16,000 nuclear weapons today. peak? weapons at the there were approximately 70,000 nuclear weapons in the world in the 70's. only one sign at the nuclear bomb museum in hiroshima. one bomb is all it takes to wipe out a city. why do we need 1.7 million of them? in the 1950'stes actually held congressional sundial to project discuss the possibilities of buildin

they were united in the conviction that the united states should have a defense second to none in the world. they were all men who hated war and were dedicated to peace, but not one of these five men and no president in our history believed that america should ask an enemy for peace on terms that would betray our allies and destroy respect for united states around the world. [applause] as your president, i pledge that i shall always uphold that proud bipartisan tradition. standing in this convention hall four years ago, i pledged to seek an honorable end to the war in vietnam. we have made great progress to that end. we have brought over half a million men home, and more will be coming home. we ended america's ground combat role. no draftees are being sent to vietnam. we have reduced our casualties by 98%. we have gone the extra mile. in fact, we have gone tens of thousands of miles trying to seek a negotiated settlement to the war. we have offered a cease-fire, a total withdrawal of all american forces, and exchange of all prisoners of war, internationally supervised free elections w

both sides, united states and confederate states were struggling for their very existence. this was life or death. actions that would have been considered atrocities at the beginning of the war were becoming common place on both sides. sherman thought it was hip critical for confederates who quote plunged the nation into war, to appeal to god and humanity when the tide turned against him, especially given their own brutal actions and harsh policies. no one could attack the united states especially from within he reasoned and not expect to suffer the consequences. sherman also believed there was a broader goal to be achieved by widen the destruction to include noncombatants. long term security of the united states demanded that the war become as brutal and painful as possible, he said. in this way the enemies of the united states would never again attempt to break up the country or resort to war to achieve political ends. the war sherman said was not the choice of the united states but of a minority of disaffected citizens which having lost a presidential contest sought to o

children, who if they are born in the united states, are united states citizens.stimates show that back in 2000, 30% of the undocumented adult children lived with the children. by 2012, that number was up 38%. this is one example of the phenomena and of mixed status families. meaning some family members have lawful status and others are in undocumented status. administration's daca program -- it would allow citizenship for children, it speaks to this issue of the mixed status family. to avoid deportation of parents who have been here for decades, it would afford some measure of safety from immediate deportation. for minor children who are here on undocumented status, perhaps the came with undocumented parents or came to rejoin family. or perhaps they came other own. the obama administration created program, deferred action for childhood program. it would give the beneficiaries lawful status and some at least temporary assurances of long as -- assurances against deportation as long as they remained eligible. the program was an offshoot of the dream act. which i cal

japanese admired the united states. they saw the united states as their friend, and americans were considered friends of the japanese after the san francisco earthquake. japanese earthquake specialists who knew a lot more about them than californians came to help san francisco dig out. by 1921, and especially after 1924, the united states was seen as an enemy of japan, in part because of the immigration acts. but also because of the vigorous anti-japanese laws passed in california between 1905 and 1924 restricting land ownership to aliens eligible to citizenship. japanese are not because they are not white. so that becomes the story of american immigration in 45 minutes. it is hard to cover this ground in any great detail. one of the things that's clear that the decliep of immigration after 1924 fundamentally changed the united states because people growing up in the 1920s, '30s, and into the '40s grew up in a nation of immigrants. people went to school with immigrants. people knew immigrants. there were, as we noted, t

children who live they are born in the united states are united states citizens. estimates show that back in 2000, 30% of the undocumented adult population lived with u.s.-born children. by 2012 the number was up to 38%. this is one example of the phenomenon of the next status family, meaning a family with some members having some sort of lawful status and others are in undocumented status. the obama administration's recent dacca program. -- would afford a measure of to parents of american citizen children that need eligibility requirements. this program it speaks to this issue of the mixed status family. to avoid deportation of parents who have been here for decades, likely working and eligible for dacca, the program would afford some measure of safety from immediate deportation. similarly for minor children who are here on undocumented status, perhaps they came for their undocumented parents are the trouble here to rejoin family, or perhaps they came on their own. the obama administration created the dacca program, it would afford the children deferred action. t

no one could attack the united states and not expect to suffer the consequences. sherman believed there was a wider goal to include combatants. the ultimate long-term security of the united states demanded that war become as brutal and painful as possible, he said. in this way, the enemies of the united states would never again attempt to breakup the country or resort to war in order to achieve their political ends. the war sherman said was not the choice of the united states, but of a minority of diseffected citizens, which having lost a presidential contest, sauce to overturn the will of the majority by resorting to succession to those who are sick and tired of it and sue for peace. i would not coax them, or meet them halfway, but generations would pass away before they would again appeal to it, closed quotes. those were tough words indeed. but as usual with the hyperbolic sherman, his bite turned worse than his bite. has his troops set out from atlanta, 1864, sherman swore to quote make georgia howl. but the historical evidence reveals the general was neeithe a

a strong national defense taking cues in part from the united states. do you see any shifts in the e.u.'s approach to national defense? and dows -- does this impact the relationship with the united states at all? >> i think the u.k. does have a very strong relationship with the united states, but to be very frank, we have in washington 28 embassies of our member states and i think all of them feel they have a very strong relationship with the united states. germany and france do so. but even the smallest member states, the baltic states, the irish, and even larger member states such as italy. there are huge connections between all of the european countries and 9 -- the united states, so i don't think this situation will change that, and i think we will continue, if we are 27, as the european union to have a very strong trans atlantic relationship. on the specific issue of defense spending, which is more an issue for nato than the union itself, i think there will be discussions, more so on how the alliance finances there is the commitment toward the 2%.

including the lower units.he propose addition is recessed 25 feet from the front of the building to minimize the impact of the street. the horizontal addition was sculpted in the rear to not create an unfair burden to the surrounding properties.. in the rear, the propose building that is nearly the same with that of the east neighbor though the pop out of the subject property is actually one level shorter. the project retains a large 35 feet long in order to preserve the midblock open-space. i think this slide is important. there are several very large properties all around. as is indicated by the red outline in this aerial view of the rear. it should be said, the overall massing is particularly on impactful because of the subject property is great and sunken in as relates to both eastern and western neighbors. the subject property is outlined by two small hills the race effectively all the other properties around. further, the subject property is the fact that tall retaining walls on either side of the backyar

less in terms of square footage size per units. >> we deal with numbers of units versus size of units and i think from my philosophical vantage point this program will build more units. i would hope to build more quality units that are on the face livable high quality units and think space is a big part of that, which is why i spick with the mayor's office of housing 350 for studio and 550 for one bedroom. i think that is praety modest and reasonable but do think that supervisor wiener raised a interesting thing, which is if you utilize that space and there is space left over i think you thereare ways to deal with that, wrun is utilize the balance of a space provides it meets building code minimums or give the zoning code admip strairt for ordinances. >> will you be open to language of that effect? >> i'm open to either concept which is if people build minimum suz in larger unit they-any left over space can be used for a additional unit. >> it seems to me if i am comfortable living in a small unit, smaller than 3 fifen 0 i should be the one to make that decision, not a advocacy or par
