Do everything we can to help you succeed, because if you succeed, then the country succeeds. This was a meeting that was going to last for maybe 10 or 15 minutes. We were just going to get to know each other. We had never met each other. I have great respect. The meeting lasted for almost an hour and a half. And it could have as far as im concerned, it could have gone on longer. We really we discussed a lot of different situations, some wonderful and some difficulties. I very much look forward to dealing with the president in the future, including counsel. Every time he moves his hands, they take pictures. You gotta wonder, what did they really talk about . Did the president say, dude, obamacare, its the only thing with my name on it. Please dont. Did president elect trump respond, only if you show me your birth certificate . Yesterday, mr. Obama described the transition as a handoff in a relay race. Whats he really handing off . A country diminished abroad and divided within, plagued
Jewelry, cell phone, and cash. The second victim suffered a puncture in the arm by that same weapon, a large knife. Were told possibly a machete. He was taken to a local hospital. Again, michael, detectives out here talking to neighbors, trying to get more information. As far as we know, the suspect is still on the loose, getting away with jewelry, cash, a cell phone after this awful, violent attack here on oakland avenue in Central Islip. Back to you. Kat, thanks very much. We have breaking news from yonkers. Firefighters are trying to get a fire there under control. This broke out at a 99 cent store overnight. The store is next to st. Johns church. According to the churchs website, parts of that building date back to the late 1700s. Firefighters say the fire has not spread to the church, but it did cause some heavy smoke damage. Theres also breaking news in france. A terrible crash involving a bus and a truck. Kerry barrett is monitoring that from the newsroom. Yeah, darlene, the det
There is more Public Comment for the health commission. Thank you, we did have a request, commissioner, melara would like to make a few comments, and and to take her comments. Thank you. And thank you also for the data, for that was presented. And one of the concerns, that i have is that we are not doing enough prevention in any of these areas and not in all of the areas but in the area of the Domestic Violence. And i hope that we have a great opportunity as a Health Department to insure that efrp who every one who comes through the door is prescreened for Domestic Violence and i think that one of the, there is a data, available, and that shows that, there is a connection and a correlation between the Domestic Violence and then the physical health. And often, times, people who complain to their doctors about their stomach ache and their headaches, and any aches, and it may be something that is happening back at home. And they are complainting on what they are experiencing physically, b
Together rather the same way that this data is pulled together. Thank you commissioners. I want to thank commissioner melara for setting the tone on Domestic Violence and i actually wanted to say that dr. Harry edwards who is often a commentator on the media and he is a scholar and he was asked to comment on the issue of police accessive force and he really said, on terms of the racial issues that we cant even talk about racial equality until we prevent violence against women and he was asked specifically to comment on whether or not the violence accessive force was a racial issue, and so that is food for thought as you go to your conference. And i am happy with the steps that we have recognized and being on the board of Saint Francis hospital and there is a womans physician Dialogue Group and so we have had the privilege of having the doctor from ucsf as well as christie from the department of Department Health as trainers to train the Healthcare Professionals to be able to identify,
With the sociology and Harry Edwards and uc berkeley has actually said that believe that stated in the inaudible the other day that Domestic Violence is the Number One Health concern of this nation. And then, it clearly not just isolated incidents within the nfl which clearly needs to make some reforms but i think that to hear that acknowledgment is always certainly encouraging in terms of changing the publics perception, and hopefully, changing our culture, about the Domestic Violence. The questions that i have in particular with the report and again, thank you for the report. As one who actually cochaired San Francisco sensa and in the last census and i am familiar with the demographicses of the city and there is no need to belabor the consistency in terms of the major demographics and but what i do have a question, is that with regard to comparative analysis. And any of these and mat jorty of the statistics and the data are of alarm, there is no doubt about that. But one thing that
