To have artists who really have not shown much. Now lets look at other aspects of electric works operation. Lets go to the bookstore. Ok. In all seriousness, here we are in your store. This is the first space you encounter when you come in off the street. It has evolved since you open here into the most amazingly curious selection of things. This was the project for the berkeley art museum. It was this is from william wileys retrospective, when he got up onstage to sing a song, 270 people put on the cat. It is not just a bookstore. It is a store. Can you talk us through some of your favorites . These are made in china, but they are made out of cattails. These pieces of here, you have a whale head and various animals and their health over there, and they are jewelry. We do fund raisers for nonprofits, so we are doing a project for the magic theater, so there are some pretty funny cartoons. They are probably not for prime time. You sort of have a kind of holistic relationship where you m
Today we are going to talk about fire safety. We are here at the urban center on Mission Street in San Francisco. Its a wonderful display. A little house in the urban Center Exhibition center that shows what its like in a home in San Francisco after an earthquake. One of the major issues that we are going to face after earthquakes are fire hazard. We are happy to have the fire marshall join us today. Thank you. My pleasure. We talk about the San Francisco earthquake that was a fire that mostly devastated the city. How do we avoid that kind of problem. How can we reduce fire hazard . The construction was a lot different. We dont expect what we had then. We want to make sure with the gas heaters that the gas is shut off. If you shut it off you are going to have no hot water or heat. Be careful not to shut it off unless you smell gas. Absolutely because once you do shut it off you should have the Utility Company come in and turn it back on. Here is a mock up of a gas hear the on a house.

In 1972, i wanted to have art sales, pointofsale at the grocery store. So you go through the manifesto. With the bay area should have. You are making art incredibly accessible in so many different ways, so that is a good segue. Lets take a walk around the facilities. Here we are in your gallery space. Can you tell me about the current show . The current show is jeff chadsey. He is working on mylar velum, a smooth, beautiful drawing surface. I do not know anyone that draws as well as he does. It is perfect, following the contours and making the shape of the body. Your gallery represents artists from all over, not just the bay area, an artist that work in a lot of diff
Speakers mentioned removing some bus stops and changes. And so there is going to be a lot of opposition to it and it is going to be tough, but ours again and we have it look out for the whole city and the case is made well for the involvement of the Small Business community and the work of mt a and i would like to make a suggestion that your commission, came up with 12 different suggestions and we have several as well. And i think that it would be very unwhiledy to try to deal with tonight and i would suggest that we consider asking our staffs to Work Together on some of the most sale ent recommendations and to come back and we could meet again in six months or three months or whatever and talk about the specific things that will show essentially how the mta reaches out to and involves the Small Business Community Early on in the process. And i would hope that Something Like that would you know that recommendations could come to codify some of those things and at what point do we check
