wu again for this important moment in history.de ring by jewelry designer kimberly mcdonald. obviously used for the gown there, right at the top, at the halter portion. draped chiffon with texture, red dye to match duchess satin belt. and column skirt, and as you can see there on the bottom, signed by jason wu. really extraordinary. you know, when she walked out on that stage, i don't know how long president obama's speech was beforehand, but it seemed like a very, very 10 to 15 minutes as the world was really waiting to watch michelle obama emerge. as he likes to call her, his better half. boy, did she look spectacular tonight. this was a gown that was a mix of chiffon and velvet. keeping in line, really, with the type of styles that she likes to wear for these occasions. fitted at the waist, obviously, baring those famous first lady arms. and a halter design, which she has worn before. most notably in london in a beautiful white gown similar in style that i believe was designed by tom ford. what a moment. what a moment for jason

jason wu, jimmy chu.gner of choice. and i think that's a really big title to take on. he has the world at his hands. >> thank you very much. obviously we'll see it. it is a custom made dress. how quickly will he make the knock-offs? >> i reckon he already has them made. >> we're expecting the vice president in a moment. it's dress-like-a-president day, i'm supposed to be martin van buren. who? martin van buren! google? martin van buren. ♪ to the best vacation sp(all) the gulf! it doesn't matter which of our great states folks visit. mississippi, alabama, louisiana or florida, they're gonna love it. shaul, your alabama hospitality is incredible. thanks, karen. love your mississippi outdoors. i vote for your florida beaches, dawn. bill, this louisiana seafood is delicious. we're having such a great year on the gulf, we've decided to put aside our rivalry. now is the perfect time to visit anyone of our states. the beaches and waters couldn't be more beautiful. take a boat ride, go fishing or just lay in the

i think commissioner borden had some good comments, and commissioner wu.and without changing things, or adding things at this point, i think if commissioners can provide written input to the director, and have it come back to us at an appropriate time. >> president fong: i'll second that. i just wanted to add that it might be helpful the next version of this to lay out a little bit of how this actually is going to be used beyond a wallet card, if each division is going to sort of -- as framework it from this, write their own vision, specifically if new projects come about, how it's going to be used. and i think commissioner hillis talked about that. assuming that we get the next version, it's palatable to everybody what do we do with it next rather than just print it because there are foundational uses in any organization to have these types of mandates, or manifestos. >> commissioners this item doesn't necessarily require any notification but was there a date specific or just indefinitely? >> president fong: when ready. but thank you very much for bringin

that's jason wu four years ago.o doubt, he probably screened again tonight after the festivities, the gown goes to the national archives. >> what a night this must have been for jason wu. to have this happen twice is extraordinary. >> it is really startling. i can't recall a time when it has happened recently. generally the first ladies tend to go with the designer they know well for the first inauguration. oftentimes the designers get a lot of notoriety but don't necessarily get a big business boost from it. but then they move on to someone else the second time around. and it is often been oscar de la renta, the go-to guy. so it is unusual that she would choose the same young designer twice. >> what about the color red? i think of nancy reagan. were you surprised by this color? >> well, you know, nancy reagan doesn't own red and barbara bush doesn't own blue. they're patriotic colors. i was surprised because i tend to think of them as a little cliche. very traditional and mrs. obama has proven herself to be very un

. >> president fong: commissioner wu. >> vice president wu: i have some questions that that director you will want to answer. there are performance measures where there is room for improvement and i think our talk about the supplemental was about of related. so i just wanted to get a sense from you about what the strategy is for keeping up, or for improving actually these measures. it seems like this report talks a bit about the number of staff but i think there are probably other factors, supervision, training, other factors i'd like to hear about. >> director rahaim: yeah. there's a number of things like that. that's a great question, actually. obviously staffing numbers, just a sheer number of project has gone up so it makes those numbers hard to meet. i think to be frank some of those target numbers aren't necessarily realistic on the other end of the equation so we should maybe look at those 80% for example on the drs isn't realistic but anyway, i think training is one, for example, one of the things that we now have a full time training coordinator in the department which we di

commissioner wu. >> i am really happy to see this project. i want to thank the architect for this rendering. it's nice to see projects in their context with other projects entitled. i think this project actually fills part of the conversation around twitter and mid-market and what is going to happen so seeing this volume of affordable housing units, 190, is really quite remarkable so i am very happy to support this. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah ms. waty, maybe you can answer some of it. i think it's a wonderful project. i know 167 units are the off site for 201 folsom and then it was chosen that the other units that remain project sponsor agreed to limit the market rate part of those to the 150 percentile and there has to be off set because they're off the 120 -- whatever the limit is for affordable units. >> exactly. so the first 167 are for the traditional units and you're left with the rest and the 20 is up to 150% of median area income. those units are not considered below market rate for purposes of the requirements for the planning

. >> president fong: commissioner wu. >> vice president wu: i want to thank director rahaim for bringing this forward. thithere is a role for buildinge character of the department and seeing the shared values toward doing this work in the city. there is a reason people want to be planners in this city. to that end, i actually -- i like the values statements. i like especially these top ones about collaboration, education, open dialogue. of course, we could administer, but i don't want to get into sort of wordsmithing -- not just word smithing, but sort of adding and focusing on which ones to include, which ones not to include. i think the mission statement is less successful because it called out these five bullet points in particular, i think that it's focused on these five bullet points only and is missing something. i don't know if it should be more of a reference to the code 101.1 items, or if it should be a reference to something else. but i think calling out design, calling out the environment, calling out our regional role, you know, you could name historic preservation, you could

i think the commission, as commissioner wu just summarized, is one which the commission itself is very concerned about and we hope that you all find common ground together with how we are taking the full weight of the subject matter, and we all find your support for the project. i want to go through some aspects which the commission has not yet talked about, and that is basically the specifics of the building. i feel that many of the other aspects have been well addressed, but i want to be the one who will raise two points. i believe that the cultural relevance of the project was very thoughtfully described as it refers to fabric and basket and arts and crafts and weaving. on the other hand, one can't help but think for a moment that we are talking about a piece of look-at-me architecture [speaker not understood] which is generally low key and more for everybody. the architecture as proposed is so strong that while it complements the theater in color and in overall form, it still leaves for me personally a number of issues to be discussed. let's talk about the positive things. * let's
