case of the united fruit. headways were wonderful tax free concessions to things but honestly practically every western company all over latin america and asia had the same at the same conditions basically they had the bargaining power they had the technological advantage and the money these places wanted them and the deal was very little taxes. in our age tax avoidance or tax planning as it as it's called in business schools has become a central feature of business globally and that's a quite different situation from when you know developing fragile states in the one $900.00 centuries were offering low tax low taxes now it's the core of business. a multinational can easily avoid fiscal legislation in the sovereign states where it operates by using a method which is well known today transfer of prices where profits show up in the countries with the lowest tax levels of body you prefer the law this is a political issue do we want this money to be given back to the public authorities to be used for the common go

projects with 150 units or fewer versus over 150 units. and then 90-180 days for the complete review which includes design review. what projects are eligible? there is a list of eligibility criteria. there are, the project must have a minimum of two units or more. there definitely restrictions on demolition. there are prevailing wage and skill forest requirements and project must meet objective standards. what are objective standards? first objective standards must be uniformly verifiable. they cannot be subjective. if you think of examples, the rear yard requirement of 45%, determining compliance with this requires no subjective judgments. something that would not be objective is that many of our design guidelines. when we say something has to be consistent with architectural character, that requires subjective judgment. it's also important to notice that most of our larger products, require some sort of exception. large project authorizations, downtown project authorizations. it's often you see these projects and they have exception for

unit.of the one-bedroom units contain a nested bedroom. the department finds the project is on balance consistent with the objectives and policies of the general plan including the van ness area plan. the planning department recommends the commission approve the project on the basis that represents an appropriate redevelopment of an underutilized lot, in an area where existing infrastructure can support residential growth. this concludes my presentation and i am available for further questions. thank you. >> project sponsor? >> good afternoon. i am here on behalf of the project sponsor, the chan family. we appreciate the good work by mr. may and the rest of your staff. over the past few years we have work to respond to design input from the planning department and rework the project to comply with the changes and unit mix requirements as they are requirements and assist natural increase in inclusionary housing requirements. that said we are very pleased with the end product and pleased to b

, rent-controlled units, units that were vacated by ellis active actions, in any unit that is occupied by a low income household in the past five years that is also a change from what you had in your case report and at that time it was only units that were rented at affordable households. it is regardless of what the rent or rent restriction is. the question is, is there a household that is below that income level which is 80% of area median income. for those protected units, the city would only be able to approve the removal of those units as part of a development project that did all of the following conditions. first there has to be replacement units of comparable size and affordability in the new project, in addition to that , there has to be relocation benefits provided to the existing tenants and a right of first refusal to the tenants to return to a comparable unit in the new project. additionally, the residents would be allowed to remain in those buildings were up to six months before construction begins. it should be noted that these replacement units, according to the bill, w

per units. we had a lower fee for one bedroom, a higher fee for two bedrooms, a higher fee for three bedrooms. the new methodology it became a basic per unit fee. so, that was mandated through prop c. we then, for reasons of administrative ease worked with the planning department to translate our per unit fee calculation to gross square foot fee calculation. this is consistent with the way other impact fees are applied. administratively it is much more advantageous. it also means that smaller units are not prejudice in the new fee application. under the old fee, four bedrooms. under the new fee, you would have had the same fee whether you are building a five or a 2,000 square-foot luxury building. that change was administratively advantageous and had the effect of not prejudicing smaller unit, or alleviating burden on larger luxury units. it brings more parity to the application fee. >> thank you, mr. adams. >> i have a question, sir. i mean, there is a reason why they changed it as you just exp

units or legalized.n essence, if it is not financially feasible to legalize the units, the conditional use authorization must be granted. based on the two appraisals that are in your packet from the planning department and the professional construction consultants' detailed estimate, the cost and gain would be as follows. the property in its current illegal condition is appraised at $1.5 million. the property in a legalized condition with age group housing units is $2 million, so that is an increase of $500,000 with legal group housing, the problem is that the cost to renovate and reconstruct this building, the property would cost $1.1 million , that music rodriguez family, if they were to legalize the building, would lose 550 to $600,000. just as important is the fact that they do not have $1.1 million available to spend on that type of legalization and or currently facing significant debt because of the hard money loan that they had to take out to pay -- to address this process. on top of all of this,

united states. he is currently working on the history of the u.s. civil war as an international working-class rebellion. understanding this is the first time the institute has hosted a panel that looks at the global civil war. so, we have got a lot of exciting things we can share. to start off, i would like to ask our panelists, we know a lot about the civil war, you guys are aware of the dynamics of the civil war, what about people outside of the united states in 1860? what are some of the other things that were competing for headlines in something like the london times, probably the most widely circulated newspaper at the time. what other things are happening -- were happening that help us contextualize? >> the short answer is a lot. timepends on a particular during the war itself, but if you were to pull up a random london times or any other publication within europe, andre might be able to speak about other ones in the western thesphere, but it is political machinations, the soap operas of europ

three large bedroom units were replaced with smaller units. the introduction of the junior studios, and two bedroom units. per the neighbor's comments, the parking eliminated all of the parking in the basement level. the retail space is now shown as demise as street at the point. per udat's comments, the side of the windows along woodward were reduced. the ground floor unit entries remain unchanged and comply with state requirements for accessibility. a mezzanine is provided in these units. the department recommends approval with conditions as the project is skints with the general plan and the planning code. the department finds that the project is on bound consistent with the policies of the general plan. the project results in new rental housing including new market rate units for rent, which is a goal for the city and are more diverse uses than the -- consisting parking lot -- existing parking lot. this concludes staff presentation, and i'm happy to answer any questions. >> vice president koppel: thank you. i do have one speaker card for s

and the red is for the united states. so the united states is well below average. well below the median. more than half the countries around the world have a higher homicide rate than the united states. there are a couple things to point out. other people seem to think murders and homicides are the same thing. they are not. and it makes a difference in these types of graphs. the differences homicides are murderers and justifiable homicides. the united states has more justifiable homicides. that would cut our ranking by 20 percent or so from what we have here and would make a significant difference. most countries don't report murderers. they just report homicides and that makes one difference there. what people often do when they make comparisons across countries is not to look at homicides but firearm homicides. the average is up here, the united states is over here. much higher than the median. why is the united states a much higher in terms of firearm homicides and we are in terms of total homicides? if you look at the graph carefully, the lines look thicker. th

the armed forces were united. the allied armed forces were united. royal air force assisted the canadian infantry, because the french resistance fighters opened up the lines through normandy and elsewhere to the united states armed forces, a decisive moment for the battle. australians, people from new zealand, denmark, norwegian navy officers and dutch airmen arrived, and the interminable battle of the gap, the polish tanks made all the difference and it is because of that, that this gamble to free europe from the hold by way of the sea could be one. we shall never cease to perpetuate the alliance of free peoples. that is what they did. immediately after the germans and japanese surrendered. when they created the united nations. that is what the united states did, when it created the nato. that is what, a few years later, the leaders of europe did, in bringing about the european union. >> translator: france wishes to continue to support this promise of normandy, understand its purpose for what we owe to our homeland, what we owe two countries that sh

but the suspicion is by the united states and the united kingdom and others that iran was involved.seen the recent tensions between britain and iran over the seizure of grace 1, your vessel, what do you think the possibility of you stumbling into an accidental war in the gulf are? well, again, it's the persian gulf because it's next to our borders. it's a body of water that iran has protected, iran has maintained the security of freedom of navigation in the persian gulf and the strait of hormuz for millennia and we will continue to do that. we are a major power in that region. those who have come to our region have not, those who have come to the persian gulf and brought their naval vessels to the persian gulf are not helping secure this body of waters. what do you think is the possibility or the likelihood of stumbling into some conflict? of course there is. of course there is a possibility of an accident but we cannot leave our own neighbourhood. those outside have to decide why are they in that neighbourhood and whether their presence in the neighbourhood is helping stability and

as president of the united states, i would remind the world that we are the united states of america, and we do not coddle dictators. the united states of america gives hate no safe harbor. there will be no more charlottesvilles. no more helsinkis. the challenge of following this disastrous presidency will not be just to restore the reputation of our credibility. it will be to enact a forward-looking foreign policy for the world as we find it today. and as we anticipate it will be tomorrow and years to come. much has shifted in the past few years. the international landscape is more crowded, competitive, and complicated. and when we look at what's different today two key points jump out to me. one is that the speed and intensity of the gravest dangers means that the fates of nations are more intertwined than they ever have been. climate change. nuclear proliferation. international and transnational terrorism. cyber warfare. disruptive new technologies, mass migration. we're moving like moore's law is moving. none of them can be resolved by the united states alone or any nation acting

the united states had a real problem. systemp is envisioning a that will encourage the rapid occupation and settlement of a gigantic new territory of land, but as people take up the challenge or the promise of the possibility, there is very good possibility that the united states would not be the superintending power that would best serve their interests. and there are periods in the early republic was a lot of people -- when a lot of people in the southwest were as interested in spain as a possible ally as they were in the united states. student: wasn't the oregon territory -- i may be overstepping a little bit, but wasn't the org on territory split between britain and the united states for a good -- oregon territory split between britain and the united states for a good long time? eric: it was split. -- it is notolved clear until the 1840's that that boundary would be result without theght, but originally dividing line between u.s. and british claims in oregon was treaty of because the paris didn't really draw the line

units and remove the unauthorized dwelling units and have two legal units that would be in front of you as a conditional use authorization specifically for the removal of that unpermitted unit have legally with the permit. >> right now the staff recommendation has some changes, but you're essentially asking us to have two units there. therefore we will be taking out that illegal unit? >> from a number's perspective, is the same. the differences, at that time, the unit was physically there, that has all been physically changed. now it's just proposed to be two. >> i am, you know, i'm having a hard time separating the fact that in 2014 it was okay to provide an over-the-counter to take out an illegal unit, but you know, that permit was, you know, fraudulent. there was a bunch of staff that went along with that permit, subsequent permit that allowed for taking out that illegal un unit. if this project came before us, i don't know that we would allow for taking out a an illegal un unit. i'm having a hard time, you know, thinking about the timing of it, and the sort of, you know, whether

the united states will make available temporary work visas so they can come to the united states and work in agricultural jobs. president jimmy morales says this is a deal that is good for his country because it avoids the sanctions that president trump threatened guatemala with a few weeks ago. he threatened them to detain or stop immigration. it will move to the southern border to prevent people from crossing the border. guatemala is giving aim and migrants have to request asylum, but the details of this agreement are not very well known yet and the effects will be known in the next few days, especially because it has been controversial. in the guatemala and in the united states, what they said, this agreement is going to be dangerous for people trying to get to the united states and escape violence. >>> so what is the safe third country agreement? you heard gustavo talk a little bit about it there. there is a little bit in place between canada and the united states that anyone seeking asylum must make the claim in the first country they arrive in, not in the country where they wan

shari: to those in the united states that may be tired of the united states leading an internationalions, leading in the middle east, what do you say to them about the importance of the role of the unite that te united states plays in the process in the middle east and the world? jason: the first thing that comes to mind is iran. when we arrived on the scene, every arab leader that we met with plus prime minister netanyahu were thrilled president trump was the president because he understood that iran was the real threat to the region. it is not the israeli-palestinian conflict. i know people like to say that is the core conflict of the region. that is a small conflict in the region. the real issue is iran, and every leader here believes that under president trump, we have a chance of potentially solving the iran issue. number one is iran. , a battleshiprael to the united states. a strong israel helps keep security in a very rough neighborhood. that is another important point we make to them. but we have other allies in the region. egypt, jordan, saudi arabia, the emirates, all of th

redo the placement of those units, the occupancy of those units through a lottery system. the city also has something called housing preferences. this is mandated through our city laws. we have preferences for cop holders, people who were formally displaced from san francisco do to redevelopment actions. in the western addition. we have a displaced tenant housing preference, this is a preference for people who have been evicted do to an eviction or fire. then we have a neighborhood preference. if someone is applying for, a unit in a project. helping residents to stay one that neighborhood. finally we have a live/work in san francisco preference which captures the large segment of applicants. through that lottery system, people that fit into these preferences are prioritized essentially. >> okay, who is next? alex. >> my question is, affordable housing, i know some of affordable housing is 1500-2500, speaking on people with disabilities, most of them receive ssi, does that consider qualify for those "affordable housing"? how would you, or the city fix that? because, as you
