at all the development success stories you look at korea you look at taiwan you look at china and japan they've all used a trading system to get where they want but they certainly are not by any means you know free market countries in any sense of the word and i think that's the important lesson is that the advice the i.m.f. was giving and the economic policies that i.m.f. economists learned themselves at the university of chicago and other orthodox economics schools and then were inputting into that into economic policy advice to developing countries are the wrong kind of policies and advice from most countries in the world and that you need to have very very very differential situations for each country and they're not going to and as we all now know economic theory is described by new liberal or the docs economic schools is just floored it doesn't work with the way our real world economic systems work markets still but aren't perfectly in the photo of that kind of economic theory and the note again is that i believe in a higher call milton friedman you might know but no one is saying

like, you look at this city. there's this big five-sided building sitting next to the potomac building. where did that come from? where did the growth of the big federal government, you know, before the civil war the population of this city was something like, i don't know, 50,000 people. it was tiny. and then all of a sudden after the civil war it's several hundred thousand and all because, you know, the needs of war drove, you know, the increases in the need for civilian bureaucracies of various sorts. so i think that that is a process that continues to operate. one of the unfortunate things is that a lot of times reform can only be brought about by military threat and competition because people are kind of mule-headed, and a lot of times they're stuck in certain ways. and unless they're really hit on the head by a 2x4 meaning by the threat of real military danger, they're just not going to, you know, do the things that are necessary. okay, thank you. >> thank you.

to show you what they look like. on, off. this is a safety box you can't get it open until you turn it off. a couple of screw in fuses. this is a cartridge and screw in fuses. here it says on and off. pull it out stick it upside down and stick it back in. circuit break /-rs this is what most have. you have the meter. that's how pg and e /khrarpblgs us. you have the big main. usually there are 60 or a hundred or 50. the little guys are 20-15-30. if you want to shut off the power you shut off the little guys first than the main. when you throw a switch there is the arch. like water when water flows in an old house any you shut it off quick you get the hammer effect? that's like electricity. is it safe to do it if you smell natural gas? show of hands. >> nobody has their hands up. it's not safe to flicking any switches if you smell natural gas. how about if there is smoke coming out of an outlet. if you shut this off in an area where there is no gas, good idea. >> just about anything can be a hazardous material, cleaners, solvant

if you climb on the edges of the rung, the ladder will go this way. look up so you know where you are going and you can see where you're going to climb. walk vertically. don't step off to the side of the ladder. kind of common sense. make sure you read chapter 7 through the . >> this class is managing a disaster. what happens and how do we fit in? emergency operation plan, everything is going to go through the mayor. you have the office of emergency services, everything is supposed to come together over on turk street. that's where the ham radio base station is going to be. that's where they will have a set up. they will be communicating with all the different emergency response districts. that's where we fit in. we're going to fit into this emergency response staging thing into nert staging districts. each response district has its own little (inaudible) then the nert groups are broken up into the corresponding emergency response districts and they are located at our fire department, battalion chief stations, basically there's a battalion chief there, he

you can look that building and actually see, if you look carefully, you can see the number of floors. two floors with an addition in the back and a bunch of an abbreviationses and the big key in front of the thing and the one with the little stairs. so how is that important to you. san francisco has amendment to the code that says if you have a stairs and a deck on your back porch and you want to replace them you can replace them in their original configuration if they were properlyibility in the first place. how can you prove they were? in many cases that's hard to prove. but here it is this shows exactly where the shaping configuration of the stairs is. so we have a set of the most current inborn or sand born map's behind the planning department counter that will be happy to make or let you look at them and make copies of them there's a free copy machine. i've seen the old ones. not in the last year or two, do you know where they are? >> the series four books are on the sixth floor of the san francisco public library and early series are micro film also from the library. if you belo

if you look at driverless cars and you look at them doing what they're doing with ford.

pakistan angle because there's more questions than answers i at this point here but i mean when you look at pakistan would you say that the bush slash obama war on terror as it can be called a success by any any to mention whatsoever. i think you just have to look at the situation in pakistan today and compare it to what it was before the before the occupation of afghanistan began and now today we have insurgencies in different provinces in pakistan we have daily terror attacks in which. you know hundreds of thousands of thousands of civilians to some numbers have put up to thirty thousand civilians have died in the last ten years in pakistan just from the terror attacks so i don't see this being any in any way a success even though some of the lardons killing will probably generate more and more such attacks and if you look at the kind of success that obama is saying that this could be for afghanistan then that doesn't make any sense either because some bin laden has been a man on the run he's got no operational capabilities not been involved in in battle he's not been involved in any w

if you look at what happened to computing power in the last quarter of the 20 century, declined 1000 full. the price of an automobile had declined as rapidly as the price of computing, you could buy a car today for $5. anytime you have that dramatic reduction, the price of something, the barriers of entry go down. so now anybody can get into the game. in 1975 if you wanted to have instantaneous communications from washington to johannesburg to moscow -- you could do it. today anybody has that capacity. there are more examples of what can give to illustrate this, but the important point is not the governments are finished or they are not the most important actors, on the contrary they are. but this stage is much more credit. there are many more participants on that stage again before. and information has essentially become so much more widespread that there are many more people able to play. egypt is a great example of this. if you look at the way you would have a choice between an autocrat and a muslim extremist is a spectrum of participants in politics in the middle east, it turns ou

what do you look for that ahead of the news? >> there are three or four things to look for. management has to believe in paying dividends to the shareholders, sharing some of the benefits of an improving company earnings stream with the shareholders. not all senior managements or major shareholders believe that. warren buffett doesn't believe in sharing much with anybody. so you look for a positive management attitude towards dividends. you look at the record to see if they have, in fact, not only paid a dividend for a long period of time like a list of 25 years or more of paying a dividend. we call that the dividend aristocrat list. and not only paying it but increasing it as the earnings rise. so when that happens, you get income that's on the way up without taking a high risk of waiting for interest rates to move before you get any benefit. >> tom: you've brought along a collection of those you think are poised to increase dividends including the insurance giant chubb. the ticker symbol is cb. the stock is near a 52-week high. does it concern you to buy a stock that's bee

now you look like louis gosset, jr. maybe you should start smoking again. >> he and a lot of his jokes that those who might be running for president in 2012. >> the time is 9:00 08, 40 degrees. running short on ideas to what to get your mother? we will look at some local gift ideas for that special lady. >> one maryland teacher recognized for her extraordinary effort. more details in this morning's education alert. >> the storm system out west pushing clouds our way today and eventually a chance of rain. the insta-weather + >> at your 11 insta-weather + forecast with john collins. >> the clouds have taken up a little bit. we take a look at the hd doppler radar. just north of the city, on the left edge of your screen, there is some rain dipping down. the elevation indicates it is mostly up in the clouds. the people up there may be getting a couple of sprinkles. there are some showers north of hagerstown. most of the action is in pennsylvania. it is all part of a storm system that will produce some big storms in places the

if you have to wait a week or 2 or 3 you are looking at a service life of 50 plus years. if you put in a vinyl clad window my experience i seen people put them in and 10 years later replace them again. and 15 years later replace em. you are not loezing time. >> the essense ever the question is different. they can put in a single pane can they remove the sash and put in a doubling pane. if the rabbit is the groove in which the glass sits. if it was thick enough to get the double pane and have room for glazing or a sash stop you would be able to do that. that would depend. thickness. >> it's not thick here. >> it's less to mount double paning than for them to make you a new sash. >> may be outside our expertise. the on double pane and single the argument for energy efficiency double pane is better. my question, his building is not insulated. you double paned the glass area but the whole wall is leaking. how much improvement do you get by replacing the windows when the rest of the building is lose and has drafts and is -- >> quite a big difference the way you perceive being c

if you look to the right, there are many hospital regions, and to the left of that, many other regions in california. i want to show you a statistic before we go into specific regions. california state expenditures on a per capita basis are 12% below the national average. but a very important component to also look at is our rate of growth. it is much slower than other states and the national average. california sees a growth rate of 5.9%. the country over all has seen a growth rate over the last 10 years of 6 but 7%. so despite the fact that health care costs are rising, we are not rising as fast as other states and we are well below the national average. -- 6.7%. there is a reason for that. california is very innovative, not just in health care. we are the greatest state in the country. in terms of health care -- supervisor campos: i agree with you on that >> if you look at how we tried to adhere -- take care of the patient, the number of admissions, hospital visits, a total of outpatient visits, are far below the national averages, when you look at california compared to the nationa

when you look at a business plan, that is just a start up. we are looking to see where there will be the need for lending. if you are an existing business, we want to see the money that we give you goes to the growth of your business. the third c is capital itself. basically, how much of yourself had the-- how much capital haveu invested? if you are a startup, and generally, 30%. if you are an expansion, you are looking to expand your restaurant, that is generally around 20. the fourth c is capacity. capacity is pretty important. that is the ability to repay your loan. if we are going to be looking at a debt service, we look at a percentage of 1.25. for start-ups, we like to see startups near 1.25, generally closer to 1.5. the fifth c is collateral. i will put it to you this way. on a startup, we like to say 25% to 30% in the form of cash or real estate that has fungible equity in it. a purchase of real estate will count as collateral. pretty much, at wells fargo, we have this process streamlined. i am the front end. after i review the alone,

you know if people on wall street look at that and they say hey if i rip off you know a pension fund or insurance company or a foreign bank. or foreign hedge fund there will be absolutely no consequences basically the only lesson they have learned is that they can do anything and get away with anything and that's just right and i mean even if it blows up even if we did completely wrong you know the worst case scenario is that the government is going to come in and bail us out with taxpayer money so obviously the c.e.o.'s are not going to the bankers are not going. care much about homelessness joblessness and all that mess they've created but why don't politicians really make more of an effort at this point i mean it's been enough time over two years we're going to start doing something to put stuff back together to put the puzzle back i think there's a lot of reasons for that i think our politicians are completely isolated from what most people in america are really going through they don't spend a lot of time with people who are struggling they don't know what it's like to not be ab

>> yes it is, that's an olive, for whoever doesn't have a mike. >> if you look across the street, you can see what this tree probably used to look like. unfortunately, this is an example of what i described earlier, where you top the tree, you cut the top off it. a lot of times, when people see a tree there is really overpruned and you see new growth, and you see the tree is coming back, it is recovering. but actually, this is a sign of stress growth, the tree is trying to get as much leaf can nappy as it can. it is producing these sprouts. these won't be healthy or well attached to the main trunk, what they mean, if it ever gets big enough, they're going to start breaking off and they're going to fall on cars and the sidewalk, and they're going to be a hazard. >> what probably happened here, would be my fes guess is somebody pruned the tree in order to allow them to see their sign or something and they considered this to be acceptable tree pruning, which doesn't meet anybody's standard. >> that's right. >> this is caused by someone doing this deliberately to the tree. >> in san franc

if you look at the side view of that, you will see that over the next five years, our budget is going to grow to a projected $543 million, about $200 million. 85 percent of that is debt load. that is the story of the water department, issuing debt and paying it off. other than the debt service, you're talking a 50% increase in the other items related to the water department. one of the things you should be aware of and somewhat concerned about is that we are able to issue debt because we have a decent fund balance. it assures people that when the debt is due, we will be paying off. notice in your 2011 -- year 2011 test well, the -- notice in year 2015-2016, the budget is about $50 billion. we need to continue to raise rates and have everything -- a flat budget for everything other than debt to make sure we cover debt and continue to issue it and keep a double a rating. i 2015-2016, $23 million is barely enough to do it, but we do not want to raise rates unnecessarily. i would be happy to answer questions as i go along if you would like. on waste water, you can see that between the cur

you are looking at their foes. the man on the left--you are looking at their foes. the man on the left is accused of trying to steal things from a home in martinez, while they were arresting him, they said the woman on the right showed up at the pawnshop and officers say that she was found in possession of some of the stolen jewelry. the two of them have been booked into the county jail. now the police are looking for someone that fired gunshots into a house, you are looking at the location on the map. the bullets came within inches holly drive in watsonville. several people were in a home, including the four year-old and 50. they were in a bunk bed. there are no motives or suspects in this case. a person injured in a related drug explosion at died. at a livermore apartment complex last saturday they said that he died from his injuries and two other people remain in critical condition. investigators said they found drug paraphernalia in the apartment, but no signs of the medical lab. now it look at the 1 01 in san jose. the cars are headed our way, stay with us, mor

if you look up at the seceiling you would believe that's hand kof carved out of wood and it is a cast plaster sealing and the only spanish design in an arts building. there are no records about how many people worked on this building. the workman who worked on this building did not all speak the same language. and what happened was the person working next to the other person respected a skill a skill that was so wonderful that we have this masterpiece to show the world today.

and may i say for as beautiful as you looked that day, you look even more beautiful tonight.ow, you, on the other hand, mr. president, have aged a little. what happened to you? when you were sworn in you looked like the guy from the old spice commercials. now you look like louis gossett sr. i never said this to anyone before, but maybe you should start smoking again. is this the change you were talking about? mr. president, look at your hair. if your hair gets any whiter the tea party is going to endorse it. oh, i'm going to get an angry voice mail from jenny thomas in 19 years. but i believe the president would agree with me that the mood has changed a bit since the beginning of his term. at beginning of his term, mr. president, housewives were trying to sneak into the house. now everyone is leaving. by this time next year it will just be you and joe biden trying to find toner for the copy machine. >> we'll have a lot more for you. >>> still ahead, a wedding anniversary gift from mariah carey that will change her life forever. >>> coming up at the top of the hour, attack on

if you look at south of market today, large parts of it looked like a ball about city. in short, there is nothing systematically the matter with the policies that we have in place. >> i will cut to the quick. perhaps allowing them to function by a improving the revisions to articles 10 and 11 might simplify and shorten the process and might avoid some of the reviews that everyone is complaining about. there is a dynamic balance between historic preservation and development. this is good for both historic preservation. it does not prevent or inhibit change. it just defines what needs protection by identifying how and where change to occur. and when it must be discreet. you talked about the sustainability of historic preservation, but it does encourage new developments to be aware of context and hence the quality of the city. these are goals that in the city should have and should be a part of any project. in short, i don't think there is any conflict between direct preservation. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i am a resident of san francisco, a real-estate consultant to

when you are looking at something that meets a minimum standard you're always looking right at the edgeu know, how can we correct this without getting it to go below the minimum standards, how can we do tenant improvement work to make sure it complies and continues to comply. >> because one of the things in the building is, tenants love to connect floors together. so they have their own private tenant spaces. that's an engineering issue. the tenants love to have files. so if you design a code right to the minimum, the engineer me, has got to sharpen his pencil and do things. in buildings that were built for an owner who says we want a class a, well-designed building then it's a lot easier for me to do an valleys o evaluation of te building. this blid i building -- building is designed to life-load twice what the building was designed for. >> occasionally there are issues, somebody accommodation in with a huge load of equipment. they want to turn this into storage. >> jeenl problem, they sigh they need fire-safe files, and a fire-safe file, looks like they weigh about a thousand pounds.

if you look at that figure in 2013-2014, you will see that revenue fund capital is going up by $50 million. the biggest portion is the realigning of the mountain tunnel. the problem we have right now is that we are cash funding haji's capital because we cannot issue debt. we cannot issue debt because we do not have a reliable stream of revenue. the debt-rating agencies understand that we are not charging even our cost to deliver water to agencies in the city and school districts, so since we are not even recover our costs, they are reticent to even give us a bond rating, and without a bond rating, we cannot issue debt. unless we do something about the rates that allow us to actually end up being able to bond for haji, we will have to shut down a lot more in three years. if we are able to stabilize our rates, start to grow our rates, and be able to issue debt, then this picture becomes appreciably different over the long run. supervisor chu: thank you. >> which is a good segue into this slide. the hetch hetchy system is a wonderful system. it provides good, clean power. that power is given

anyway, thank you so much, and we look forward to seeing you guys. and i thank you. we also want to give a special thanks to the coordinator of tonight's events. and at the conclusion of tonight's program, everybody is invited to the reception. make sure you get a ticket from the ashes at the door because you will need the ticket to get in to get that great food and the reception in the greenroom. you will notice on the ticket, there are eight great -- plant boxes on the back, and they will mark each station. you need to visit all of the food stations, and once your ticket is mark, you can take it to a raffle, drop it in the bowl to with a gift certificate from one of the participating restaurants, and the winner of the raffle will be notified by phone or e-mail. remember, doors to the green room not going to open. we still have a little bit more of our ceremony here, so stay and enjoy the grand finale. now, i would like to turn the program over to rose, who has overseen the finale of this event since 2008. she also coordinates the decision america pageant coordinate

you look at what it's done, even more importantly charlie sheen. ng back. >> this doesn't scare you, 82% in a year? >> no, because if you look at the valuation, if i take all of them, it's the most attractive company out there. >> let's talk about a nonnetwork play, what else do you like? >> netflix. that's the future. everybody wants to invest in the future. the future is i'm watching my television show, my movies, wherever i want to watch them. talk about being scared, look at the chart of netflix. >> 771% in five years, although most of it has been in the last year. >> i look at this and think to myself, where the heck was i-4 years ago? >> you know where you were? you were a subscriber. >> i was spending $15 a month to get the movies. i think that's the future. >> when you started, you said netflix is one of something that could become many. linkedin. that's what netflix was. things changed in the last few years, but ultimately it was just a service that mailed you dvds. >> inkedin, what did they really do? i'm on it and it doesn't give me anyth

but if you say, okay, you are looking at the wall and you look down, now what do you see? it's like i don't know, i've never looked at anything. and so i think there's something really healthy about that, that's bringing the body back in. these sorts of things i've noticed goes, we don't think of motor skills as cognitively impressive. but it's really hard to create a robot that can walk on two legs. you know, the segue has three computers in it are just designed to keep the handlebar of right. and that makes me feel real good about myself, that i can -- [laughter] i can stand here and it doesn't impress any of you guys, all the because you guys can do that and we are all impressive. >> what you think is going to happen when they win all the time? 20 years and they've been winning, and people still think it's a hunk of metal, not thinking? was passed the turing test, is there an actual test of cognition? >> i don't know. i gently tried to dodge these sorts of questions. but i don't know that i can get away with that. i think actually that if we get to a point where for all

you. i'll go through it. it has page numbers on it. of special note is we're going to look quickly at five separate building projects on three different sites. i thought i would start on page 6 by letting you know of the shared commitments that the buildings will bring to the city. first and foremost, these are complex programs that are designed for delivering high quality medical care to members of the san francisco community for many years to come. thank you. secondly all of our projects are committed to being designed sustainably and will have certification. they will be scaled to fit in the neighborhood. president olague: one moment. there are some seats over on this side so if you want to come around the front. i just wanted to let you know that. ok, i'm sorry about that. >> that's ok. thank you. they will be set with an inviting streetscape and they will be using appropriate high quality durable materials and those trends will be i think seen clearly as we go through each one of the sites. if you turn to page 7, the first site is davies where we're pro position a new

i think if you look at race related to san francisco, if you look at profiling, if you look at some of the most wanted lists, pictures on the most wanted, you will only see one thing that is self-evident. the criminals today come across a broad spectrum of different backgrounds, different races, different ethnic religions. to say that sfpd would profile just one group when they are a very small minority in the city and county of san francisco is probably not a big item on their list. i have been a taxi driver in the city and county of san francisco for 13 years. i have seen crimes take place with no policemen around. i have seen crimes of every background that you can imagine, everything except for a shootout, with no policeman around. i can say this emphatically. most of the crimes i have seen in the city and county of san francisco have been of ethnic backgrounds that were not part of this city just 25 years ago. if the police department has to specifically look at some of these backgrounds, i think they have the power to. thank you. >> good evening, commissioners. january 2 of 2011,
