As a nation, this is the kind of the best of america in action. This is something we do well and this is a living History Lesson today. Yes, all of us who are here to cover it love this sort of thing and wouldnt miss it for the world, but this is how an interest in history and politics can get kindled at a young age. And its one of the great spectacles available for free from home. Savannah guthrie, i heard someone say this past week that this time around, four years later, the highs are not so high and the lows are not so low, meaning yes, the crowd wont number 2 million. The history of this administration has already been made. But also the economy isnt in a fr fr freefall. It doesnt feel as dire as it did. As you mentioned, this is one of these moments. This is one of the symbols that we who love this democracy cherish so much. The president using this opportunity. We talk about the big moments in a presidency. This is one of them. Im told this is an inaugural address that will be f
He worked at Merrill Lynch 15 years where he developed his management skills and later left corporate life to pursue his calling in pastoral ministry. He leaves behind to cherish his memory his best friend and his loving wife tamara hall man jackson, his parents of washington, d. C. , and ruth jackson, also affectionately known as polly. Shes a leader right here in our own Visitacion Valley community. He left behind four brothers, brian, drew, james, and lorenzo and one brotherinlaw, raphael who resides in hollywood, california. So, please join me in lifting up our dear friend and sister ruth jackson as she mourns the loss of one of her children. On another note, another sad note, i also want to lift up another mother of the Bayview Community that has lost her son. Many of you know ms. Espinola jackson. She recently lost her daughter to a battle of cancer. Ms. Yvonne Jackson Harris was born february 9, 1956. She attended San Francisco Public Schools and in the fourth grade she had alre
In fact, since its implementation in 2009, recidivism has decreased across the board not only for the youth served, but for all youth committed to out of home placement, indicating that the program has a system wide impact. Positive impact. The juvenile Probation Department had a threeyear grant for the jcrt which just ended with this new grant they are asking for the authority to create a new social worker position. But once the grant funds run out, the department can absorb the cost of that position. Theres no request for new funding from the city. Ive dealt with juvenile probation issues personally with a lot of the kids that ive worked with over the years in our district. I have seen young friends and Community Members incarcerated and i know how difficult it can be for them to return to the community. As a city, we need to help such kids find opportunities and get on the right path and im commit today that as supervisor. This grant will help the juvenile Probation Department do ex
And russia in ukraine. Im joined by Chris Jansing. Good morning. Lets start with isis. Good morning. Yeah counterterrorism was the big focus this morning. And the special guest, as theyre being called were the leaders of tunisia, nigeria, and as you said iraqi Prime Minister. Obvious obviously, hes key to the fight against isis, and hes essentially come asking for more help. He says he needs additional assistance, and the white house made it clear even before the start of this g7 that that would not be forthcoming. No announcements will be made here. He did get some good news from british crimePrime Minister David Cameron who said the uk will send about 125 more trainers to help with the iraqi army. Remember, this is the first time that the president and abadie have seen each other since the comments from defense secretary carter that he didnt think the Iraqi Military was showing, quote, a will to fight. Also the announcement since no new aid, and i guess there was an awkward moment wh
Or a restaurant with someone playing a guitar, making that an easier permit process than a fullblown night club. At the time i indicated that we should be including deejays in the legislation. It was too late in the process. As i indicated i would be doing that in ensuing legislation and i am doing that today. There are many situations where deejays in Art Galleries or in a restaurant during the day or early evening might be there and it makes sense to encourage that and not to require those venues to go through the same significant permitting process that we require of night clubs. Another provision in the legislation will allow more live music in outdoor plazas and courtyards. Right now we actually dont have an ongoing permit for venues, whether its a plaza in a neighborhood or a Neighborhood Group once every week or once a month, have live music in the plaza. Or a venue like the eagle tavern which has an outdoor plaza and that sometimes has live music or el rio. Right now you have t
