Patient Comments: Chiggers - Treatment
What treatment has been effective for your chigger bites?
Comment from: Karl, 65-74 Male (Caregiver) Published: August 24
When I was a child (40's-50's) my parents would dust our ankles with a slight bit of sulphur powder to avoid chiggers. We never had bites. Recently my family went camping near Richmond and got lots of bites and continued to get them at home. Upon return I dusted my legs and further bites ceased.
Published: August 06
I get attacked by chiggers at least once a year no matter how careful I am! This week, I got nearly 100 chigger bites, but I survived because I've discovered lye soap. Lye soap (despite what you may think) is so gentle it will not dry or burn your skin. I wet the bar, make a paste on my hands, and rub it on like lotion. I let it dry and it deadens the itch for three to six hours.
Comment from: ghcowboy, 65-74 Male Published: August 28
I had a bad case of chigger bites from mowing the pasture in shorts. Best thing I have found is called Zilactin B from the pharmacy. It costs about eight bucks but stops the itching dead in its tracks. It hardens once applied and you reapply twice a day for about three days.
Comment from: JenBon, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: July 24
I have over 1,500 bites from the middle of my legs down on my feet. It has been miserable and caused me to run high fever, because of the inflammation that was caused. I have been bathing twice a day in Aveeno Oatmel Bath. I also have rubbed my legs down with green alcohol (to dry them out) and then put cortisone cream on my legs at least three times a day. I'm on day 4 and they have shrunk more than 50%.
Comment from: Phil, 45-54 Male (Patient) Published: July 12
First, take a warm shower ensuring the affected chigger area is thoroughly scrubbed. Second, after drying gently prick the 'bite' with a sterile needle. Third, put a single drop of iodine on it. After the burning stops, the itch should be gone.

This from the party with a racist VP and a racist Senate Majority Leader.
Reid, Race, and the Party-Based Double Standard
Watching Gwen Ifill, Al Sharpton and a plethora of African American news reporters and academics on MSNBC defend and excuse Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's racial slight makes you realize why the Democratic Party can take black voters for granted.
There are absolutely no consequences for liberal elites to have differing public and private views on political issues. The Democratic Party even went so far to dismiss the disparaging comments by Joe Biden about Barack Obama being clean and articulate to nominate and confirm him as Vice President at their convention.
Today, the sitting Vice President stands as the symbol of liberal elite's racial double standard.

Incorrect- Infantry will have some of the highest ASFAB scores you will see. Also, women have a lower ratio of fast-twitch muscle fiber than men, i.e. their stamina will be as high or higher but their muscle mass will be less. "Some" women will ALWAYS be able to outperform "some" men, but combat arms refuses to level the playing field merely for the sake of gender equality.

You misinterpreted "lower standards"- that would mean carrying less, filling fewer sandbags etc. Think about it, lowering the standards in school would be like making 50% a passing score on a test.

The liberal ideas in question was in respect to the British Monarchy and what conservatism meant back then. See: Toryism
It was very radical left wing liberal of the founding fathers to challenge a king, go against the church and declare that all men are created equal.

Aryan Women
Every child that an Aryan mother brings into the world is a battle waged for the existence of her people.
The program of the National Aryan Woman's Movement has truly a single point - the child.
The sphere and tasks of man and man and woman in life are separate but complimentary. Mutual respect lies in the fact that both man and woman know that each is doing everything which is necessary to maintain the whole national community.
The Aryan way of life is determined not by material considerations but by the soul of a nation. Aryan woman gives herself in conscious idealism to the concept of the national interest before private interest.
The Aryan woman guards the purity of her blood in which reposes her racial instinct and strength, the guarantor of Aryan culture.

I completely understand why you would like to divert the focus of the shames perpetrated in this country, to monsters like Hitler, and Stalin, and the many atrocities that haunt humanity historically, but, let's keep the focus on what my post was about.
Conservatism...and what the U.S would be like had it been at the helm all these years, In THIS country. Not in Germany, not In Russia. We're not talking about madmen here. Were talking about an ideology that excludes, shuns, discriminates, hates, destroys and welcomes ignorance if it means clinging to the status quo.
Unfortunately, it even discriminates against it's own when they refuse to fall into line with the sheer stupidity and hatred of the majority. I know there are some good people in the Republican party determined to salvage and save the party they belong to, but after reading the words of people like you, 119, I can't help but wonder if they are dooming themselves to go down with ship, because if you haven't looked around lately, the ship is sinking.
At this point, making comparisons to historically socialist nations, like Germany and Russia, to scare the masses isn't going to cut it. Thanks to liberalism(education), people know better. It's better that you do what you have to do to keep your party, The "Grand ol Party", intact. Whatever that is at this point ;)

She named closing the achievement gap, the ability to work, and the ability to grow small businesses as other top concerns.

3-D WorldRunner User Reviews
A fun 3D adventure, even without the glassesThe good:
One of the first 3-D NES titles. Fast, fun gameplay. Easy to learn controls.The bad:
You can't play 3-D mode without having 3-D glasses (you actually can but the graphics look horrible). No multiplayer option.Summary:
Based largely on Sega's arcade smash hit "Space Harrier", Worldrunner was one of the first any only true 3-D games for the NES, complete with those goofy-looking red & blue 3-D glasses. Fortunately for the rest of us, there's also a non-3-D option as well. The plot's rather simple-as Worldrunner, a little guy who can jump incredibly high, you run through several worlds taking on a dragon/snake-like boss at the end of each, collecting hearts & stars along the way to power your energy & weapons.
The 2-D graphics are good enough by themselves, but a bit more color would be nice despite some nic...

Thoughts on Brexit - and what next
Today the UK held a referendum on whether to remain in the EU or leave. There's an awful lot that could be said and written about this issue and the referendum campaigns, though I haven't felt the need to comment because of so many others already doing so.
One topic covered in my u/g Democratic Theory module is the nature of representation, starting with the delegate vs. trustee argument. At least since Burke, it's been argued that MPs should exercise their own judgement, rather than simply being a voice for whatever their constituents want. But delegates are also representatives. A point seemingly missed here, when it says: "Members of Parliament are representatives, not delegates, the difference being they are there to decide what in their judgment is good for us and the country, not simply to do what we say."
Top universities, as rated by their students at WhatUni.com, here. A few select highlights:
Labels: education, links, soton, university
A friend posted this Telegraph piece on Facebook and I felt the urge to comment. According to the article, George Osborne is at least considering replacing current tax relief on pensions contributions and replacing it with a flat rate for all. The Telegraph takes a scaremongering tone, arguing that this will discourage the middle classes from saving, when many already face a pensions shortfall.
I know that the idea of using random selection to reform/replace the House of Lords is not exactly new - see, for instance, this book - but there was a recent-ish column on the BBC website, which proposes a hybrid chamber one-third of which made up of ordinary citizens chosen at random (the other thirds being party representatives based on proportional representation and independents chosen for their expertise). Nice to see such ideas getting more public exposure.
Following my recent comments on the government's new alcohol guidelines, I have a blog post on The Conversation in which I consider them from a Millian liberal perspective.

Just a quick thought this morning.
Liberal democracy is designed to create the good we call freedom. It attempts to balance two things to achieve this end: respect for and tolerance of diversity AND a common and ultimate source of authority. One of the especially neat and elegant design tricks of liberal democracy is the concentration of power in a single authority, while still making the authority of that power the product of a collective and conditional will (consent of the governed).
OK, cool, so good for democracy. What's this got to do with brands? Well, I'd argue that brands need to work out a similar problem. I'll call this, "the problem of having to be singular and plural at the same time": the need for an identity that can accommodate and satisfy many different tastes, preferences and needs. Why do brands have to work this out? The answer is that some don't, and many don't want to or try. These brands win in their marketplace by dominating. Domination doesn't require respect for, tolerance of or accommodation, just superior firepower.
Too many brands and branding efforts are a hedge against inferior products and services, which substitute an experience of quality, luxury, competence for the thing itself. And when those tactics are paired with the domination (superior firepower) market strategy, then brands behave badly.
If the good that democracy is designed to create is called freedom, what is the good that brands should be designed to create?

Attention MCTS Freeway Flyer & UBUS Riders
Pertains to customers who Ride ONLY local streets on a Freeway Flyer Route
Effective Monday, September 29, 2014, the Milwaukee County Transit System will be implementing a new policy that will require any person riding on a Freeway Flyer route – even just a short segment of the route- to pay the Freeway Flyer fare.
This will NOT affect most riders and fares are NOT changing. Riders will still pay with a valid pass (i.e. CVP, U-PASS), Weekly/Monthly pass with cash premium, or the cash fare of $3.25 adult/$1.60 reduced.
In the past, MCTS was able to accommodate riders who rode Freeway Flyers for just a short distance by charging them a regular local fare ($2.25 adult cash or $1.1.0 reduced). MCTS will no longer be able to provide this service.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation as we implement this policy.
Information subject to change without notice

For morale purposes!The Washington Post reports that former Blackwater employees "assert that Blackwater officials kept a Fillipino prostitute on the company payroll for a State Department contract in Afghanistan, and billed the government for her time working for Blackwater male employees in Kabul. The alleged prostitute's salary was categorized as part of the company's 'Morale Welfare Recreation' expenses, they said." Hey, it's not as bad as post-murder bribery, okay? Allegedly.

This is a very handy plugin, but I can't seem to get it work properly.
The problem is that it only translates some of the strings.
For example, I translated error messages and field labels in WOOCOMMERCE, but only some of them were translated such as: "invalid shipping method". but string "..is a required field" doesn't change. Also labels town/city, state/county ,postcode/zip won't change.
big thanks for help. my site is http://www.ttdental.ee

the 100% housing affordable housing for families making less than $50,000. that is the reality of my family and that is the reality of many families in the mission. and i want them to continue in the city and continue to be in the district where they feel comfortable and where they feel safe. so, i urge you to please take in consideration the needs of our communities and to really benefit. the communities are there and really need the support of affordable housing in our district. thank you so much. >> thank you. good afternoon, commissioners. my name is wendy phillips. i'm the executive director of dolores street community services. and as you might know, our organization has been in the neighborhood for 30 years providing services to the homeless community and also affordable housing. you've heard a lot of community support today. our perspective as an
3:01 pm
organization who does this kind of work may be a little bit different, again, because of some of the impacts it has on the communities that we work with. we were involved in the process with the developer [speaker not understood] inclusionary requirement through the land dedication. and, so, we continue to support that option allowing lower income residents to be able to stay in the neighborhood. and also we look forward to continuing to work with the mayor's office of housing to clarify guidelines and procedures to make land dedication viable for future developments, to counter gentrification and also ensure that our community receives its fair share of affordable housing that's equivalent to other inclusionary requirements. i also just wanted to say briefly, we do operate two affordable housing sites in the neighborhood. and we also encountered some opposition from our most recent development on woodward street. initially the neighbors were very concerned with us moving in and since then we've actually completely turned around and have been thanking
3:02 pm
us for the stabilization that we have brought to that block. and, so, we know that affordable housing can actually be very nice buildings, very nice communities that actually contribute to the neighborhood and not been a detriment. briefly, i just want to speak to the community benefits agreement as well and, again, not repeat, but support my colleagues' statements around the community benefits being related to mitigating the impacts. in the original agreement that's been circulated, you may note that there are no organizations that work on land use, that have worked on antidisplacement or affordable housing that are included there. and, so, we feel that, you know, not necessarily which organization should be included, but just that whatever community benefits are approved, that they should be directly related to the impacts of the project.
3:03 pm
so, an example that has been brought up is a commercial stabilization fund, but i think just a broader stabilization fund that might prevent displacement of residents as well. and lastly, i guess i'll just say given the impact of -- that this development and many recent developments have had in our community in terms of driving up prices, we will be strongly advocating for 100% affordable housing on publicly owned land and we'll probably see some of those projects coming forward in the next couple years. so, thank you for your attention. >> thank you. hello, good afternoon. my name is teresa [speaker not understood] and i'm a youth program coordinator at [speaker not understood]. and i just want to really ask the commission to think about how stressed out -- how stressed out families are in the mission because working with youth, working with families, the number one thing on their mind is am i going to
3:04 pm
get kicked out of my house, am i going to have to pay a thousand dollars to $3,500 in a neighborhood that is the only place i've ever lived. and i think that those are the type of situations that our members are in and we really want to focus on how -- our neighborhood has been brutalized by displacement, mostly driven by profit-driven planning. so, how is that mitigating? how are we making developers responsible for that? and i think this is a step in the right direction, but we really need to be a strong city that stands by the families that have built not only this neighborhood, but this city. as a person that was born in this city, my dad was a laborer here for over 40 years, i have a right to be a part of a neighborhood ha has been a part of me my whole life. and, so, we really want to support the 46 units of 100 affordable housing for families
3:05 pm
making under 50,000 because it's the right thing to do, because developers owe that to our community. thank you. >> thank you. i'll call a couple more names. rita vinson, williams mcpen, and phil lesser. good afternoon to the commission. my name is rita vinson and i am here on behalf of the mission hiring hall. impart of the program to call the construction admin training program and we just recently graduated and i'd like for my fellow classmates to please stand. we are the recent graduates of
3:06 pm
the training program for administrative -- for construction. and we are in support of this project because it will bring a lot of jobs to the community, which we trained hard to work in this field. we have accountants. we have project manager possibilitieses. we have future engineers that would really benefit from this project that will probably go on for more projects. * so, we would just like to say that we would like for you to go ahead and support this project that will allow people like myself and people that i graduated with employment opportunity for the san francisco and for the mission district. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. thank you, commission, for having me.
3:07 pm
my name is shanel william. i'm here with the mission hiring hall pre-apprentice program. i'm a laborer. i'll be one of the ones working on the project making sure that it runs as best as it can be. these are my classmates. they will also be helping me. and i thank you guys for making this project go well. thank you. >> thank you. good afternoon, commissioners. my name is [speaker not understood], the construction program manager at mission hiring hall. and we are supporting this project partly with the community benefit package that the developer has put together to implement john avalos' local hire ordinance and create construction opportunities for these young men and young women in our training programs. also as ms. vinson mentioned, opportunities in the construction administration field on this project. and i think also what's really
3:08 pm
exciting is that the developer has committed to a 50% hiring goal on the post build out jobs. so, it really will, you know, strengthen the mission community, providing targeted outreach for impacted families, to provide, you know, sustainable living wage jobs and also providing opportunities for young men and women to begin their careers in the construction field and in a lot of ways we see this benefit package being a win/win. so, we do support this and thank you. >> thank you. commissioners, good afternoon. philip lesser, mission miracle mile business improvement district. mr. ionin, if i may have the overhead, please.
3:09 pm
those of us who are vintage 1950s, this is what the street looked like back then. that's not a bread line. those are people waiting to buy tickets at the then new mission theater. and next door we had hale's department store. [speaker not understood] army street, now cesar chavez, division street. that's the 12 ocean avenue down there. we also had quite a few cars back then just like we have today. so, that's something that's not new. what's happened in the interim, however, is we've seen decline in the area. 10 years ago it looked like that. that's the frontage. and the property owners on that block at that time formed the business improvement district,
3:10 pm
ask that business improvement district just cleaned up that street. the whole purpose of that was to invite investment. and we could not be happier than to have these two organizations come and invest, and i'll pull a number out of my hair, $60 million. if i'm off i'm not going to be off very much by what we're talking about here. if that's happening, we're going to get 160 more units of housing in the mission, 114 on this street that we spent a lot of time talking about in the eastern neighborhoods process, should be vertical, intensification of use. and you get more than twice the minimum amount of affordable housing. if this were inclusionary, wouldn't even be 20 affordable housing units. everything about this is positive. what i would like to chat about is parking. this is a unique parcel in that it backs onto bartlett street, a part of bartlett street that
3:11 pm
is one way, that comes to a t on 21st. there is very little foot traffic on this part of bartlett street and fantastic egress. as you can see we've always had a crush of automobiles on this street even with the two bart stations. even though we have the muni lines. please provide them with the .75 parking. there aren't very many places that we can find parking in the mission district. this is an ideal place for it. so, thank you for that consideration. >> thank you. calling two more speakers. sam ruez, azaria anya. hi, i'm with the mission language and vocational school.
3:12 pm
when azaria and i stepped in, i thought she was [speaker not understood], apparently she is not. there she is. you want to come up? good afternoon, commissioners, commissioner antonini, so nice to be here before you this afternoon. first of all, i want to thank you for your work. i am a former commissioner for the school board and also redevelopment. so, i know what you go through in every one of these meeting. but this afternoon i am here to ask you for your support of the new mission theater that is going to be an excellent addition, an important addition to the mission district, our community. i know you have heard plenty about this project and you will continue to hear more. but what i wanted to let you know is that this project is going to make a tremendous difference in terms of jobs, in
3:13 pm
terms of income that comes to the mission. and i would like to respectfully ask you for your support. thank you very much for all the work you do and wish you the best this year. thanks. >> thank you. good afternoon, commission president, members of the commission. my name is sam ruez and i am the executive director for mission neighborhood [speaker not understood], nonprofit in the mission community with over 52 years, providing services to low-income families in the greater mission community. i'm here this afternoon to encourage your support for this particular project and support for all aspects of the project, including the affordable housing units that are proposed to be built on cesar chavez and shotwell, which is, by the way, an a -- aspect of the project
3:14 pm
that is somewhat being driven by the mayor's office of housing. and i believe with that level of support, this project should move forward and that it merits for you to vote in favor of the project this afternoon. versus deferring on the vote. i'm confident the developers as well as the consultants that work with this developer are in a position to reach out to the community and address the most recent concern, idea which i support, by the way, a community benefit that will address specific concerns and issues as have been expressed. in my over 30 years of work or career as an administrator in the mission community of a nonprofit organization, i have never encountered a developer with such a strong community consciousness. i believe that the way that he
3:15 pm
has approached this project engaging community is one that should be practiced more often. there is no doubt in my mind that if one of the conditions to include or add a community benefit plan that such will be forthcoming. i also support the recommendation of the -- of fair legal counsel, specifically in relationship to the number of parking stalls that will be extended or approved with this project. so, with that being said, i hope that you approve this project. thank you very much. >> thank you. are there any additional public comment or speakers on this item? euronext. -- you're next. give you my card. i'm ray sloan. i've been a 25-year resident of
3:16 pm
the area and we've certainly seen a lot of changes taking place. i see this development as very positive. i also want to support the community benefit asset rather than think that it is going to be a very fine addition to the community and all that. so, ask for your approval. >> thank you. sir. hello, commissioners. my name is nelson alvarado. i came here 199, october 16th. i was 9 years old, i came from my country, el salvador. the next day was the earthquake. [laughter] and i totally wanted to go back. i remember my mom cheering me up. one of the first places she took me was to go see robo cop at the theater and that made me want to stay ever since. [laughter] so, can you guys please
3:17 pm
consider? that's it. thank you. >> thank you very much. any additional public comment on this item? okay. seeing none, the public comment portion is closed and we'll open up to commissioners. commissioner antonini. >> thank you. i had the benefit of seeing the new mission theater yesterday and seeing firsthand what is being planned and what a wonderful project this is for a lot of reasons. but speaking specifically to the theater part of it, we're not only bringing back the new mission theater, but we're saving the architectural beauty of the theater but making it a more practical use. it will probably be largely cabaret so, there will be the ability, which we have in a theater in san francisco now where people can go there, they can dine during -- watching a movie. i think this is becoming more popular. but i was told by the project
3:18 pm
sponsor and mr. marquez, and i believe this is the case, this is carefully crafted and we have to move forward today. this is the first venture for alamo films out in the bay area. and mr. reid is here, i believe he's still here. but he had told me that they are the opposite of the megaplex. they are community based within walkable areas and it's a perfect solution for san francisco. so, enough about the theater part of it, but there were two or three things that came up. one thing that makes me think this is such a great project is that this there was so much done, even groups that might be in opposition to this project, are in favor of it because of what's being done with the off-site housing and the land
3:19 pm
dedication part of t. so there are many carefully crafted parts to this. but i think one of the most important aspects of this is to make sure we have the adequate amount of off-street parking because the financing of the theater, the financing of the off-site, all of that has to come out of the condominium sales pretty much largely. it's not possible to sell these condominiums and fewer buyerses are around because they don't have a parking place, then i think the whole project could fall apart and there's a lot of benefits. mr. marquez, perhaps you could comment for a moment on the necessity of the kind of parking we need to have. and also i understand that there is a possibility to include some more bike parking to be able to allow for an increased amount of bikes to be parked in the project. thank you, commissioner.
3:20 pm
on the point of bike parking, i also want to, even though we're not required to do any at the theater, we are studying very carefully to have bicycle parking in the lobby. and right now our architect is here and we've done some initial analysis that appears it is going to yield about 25 valet parking spots inside the theater lobby. this has been done in austin. the ceo tim league is a cyclist and he loves the idea of providing more bicycle parking. so, we're thrilled about that. also in the existing space, aside from the parking spaces that we're asking, the .75, there is room for us to add at least another 20, potentially a few more spots and the project architect could address that. but we're committed right now. we have 41 bicycle spaces.
3:21 pm
we could do at least another third bicycle spaces in the garage so long as they were not class 1 which requires a lot more space. but we could definitely do that. in terms of the parking, part of what happens when you take the affordable housing out -- off-site, that requires additional absorption and it makes it more difficult to sell the units without the parking space, whereas the affordable housing units usually don't require as much parking. so, that is a consideration. and while the benefits are not tied directly to the parking, it is the tally of the financing, something that is very important to provide more benefits to the community. i do want to emphasize there's been a lot of comments about -- from the public.
3:22 pm
this is an idea that we the developer through legal counsel and community counsel and collaboration with speaking with a number of organizations agreed that there's more need to provide community funds for local nonprofit organizations on the one hand, and that is something that we don't know of any other [inaudible] and we're seeding that project. to do that. also, which i think is also crucially important is the commercial stabilization fund that we're seeding with $200,000. and then again, to emphasize the point that we're committed to growing those funds. and i do think this is a model that while we can't resolve all of the issues in the community, we're setting the bar in such a way that future developers could also feed into this fund so that the community and organizations like dolores street who are experts, meza and others could work
3:23 pm
collectively to make a better community for all. >> thank you, mr. marquez. i appreciate it. and, you know, we need to pass some conditional use provisions here. and certainly the requirements are necessary and desirable. and if ever a project were necessary and desirable, this one is. but we do have to pass a conditional use to allow the increased parking and a few other things that, you know, are fairly modest. but i mean, this is very important to make the thing work. and the only other comment i had was, you know, on the design of the condaleeza. and i have worked a little with the architect and i thought that maybe the glazing could be cut down a little bit. but these are things that we can work on, staff can continue to work on design to perhaps make it even more appealing. and i'm very supportive, i am prepared to move support for project as presented by the
3:24 pm
sponsor with the .75 parking. and the other things. but we have other comments by commissioners so i think i'd like to wait until we're done with some more comments here. thank you. >> thank you. commissioner sugaya. >> yes, as with commissioner antonini, i'll start with the new mission theater. i don't know how many of you years and years and years ago remember that the new mission theater was proposed for demolition. and i think you should -- i hope everybody is supporting the new mission theater at this point. and i think we need a little -- i won't ask for a round of applause, but some recognition for those bad historic preservationists that are always trying to stop development from having saved the theater from destruction by city college. and that's why you have a venue now that everyone seems to be in support of.
3:25 pm
i know it very well because my firm did a lot of pro bono work to show city college that it could reuse the theater in its configuration by using the auditorium for an auditorium, by reconfiguring as the architect has done here the upper portions that are now being theater, but could be classroom spaces and lecture spaces and whatnot. in any case, congratulations to the theater folks and look forward to going to some performances there. on the housing project, i think we need a little clarification. a lot of people have spoken about the necessity and the desirability of the community benefits package. i think it should be mentioned that the planning commission and the department has no authority to force the developer to actually implement that package. that's strictly a private
3:26 pm
affair between the developer and the community organizations and community groups. i assume that have been negotiating this and we'll continue to participate in it. but you can't -- i just want to make clear that the commission can't add a condition to our approval to require the developer to do that. so, it will continue to be a case where the community groups will have to be diligent and cooperative and work with the developer and the same with the developer. i'm sure, you know, they're not going to renege on this, but i just wanted to make planning commission and the city's position clear on that. they will be, however, paying into the eastern neighborhoods impact fees. and those, i don't think necessarily can be targeted directly to the area around the development because it's a different kind of process. people have questions, they can
3:27 pm
ask staff about how the eastern neighborhoods impact fee system works. but just wanted to get that out on the table. the other thing, with respect to the affordable housing, the projection is under the land dedication option that moh figured there could be approximately 46 units built there. but those 46 units i believe are dependent on moh being able to come up with the funds separately from this process in order to build those units. so, people who -- i hope that's another clarification. the developer is making the land dedication that will come to the city. i'm not sure the legal way that happens, but then the city will have land on which to build the actual unit. moh doesn't -- they may have funding which i don't know about, but they then have to find a developer, nonprofit
3:28 pm
developer, housing developer who specializes, i assume, in low and moderate income housing. they have to go through the process of funding that and, you know, doing all the negotiations. so, it will take some time. i don't know from moh, do you have some projected -- do you have any projection as to how the actual development might come to fruition? >> traceyy [speaker not understood] -- [multiple voices] >> after the land is conveyed to the city we would issue a request for proposal for the development. as commissioner sugaya mentioned, we would select a developer and the developer would go through the development process, filling out the architectural plans, permitting, putting the financing together with our help. >> okay, thank you. that's all i have. i'm going to make a motion, though, and make a motion to approve the projects with conditions as proposed by staff. >> second.
3:29 pm
>> commissioner wu. >> i have a lot of thoughts about this project. so, i want to say that it's clear from the number of community members who turned out and the [speaker not understood] we got from the developer, a serious developer has taken on community outreach and i appreciate that. we've seen this developer really do their i think due diligence, above due diligence really showed to be a good neighbor. also i think this project raises a lot of policy questions for us that as we move forward and we think about things like community benefits, like displacement, that we can try and figure outweighs to really address it more precisely. and then there is the question of land dedication. so, i think even though the commission cannot force the developer to do a cba, i think this is only the public forum really to talk about it and i think that that's important.

Sources: Scott Gomez, Sharks talk
Updated: January 19, 2013, 2:43 PM ETBy Pierre LeBrun | ESPN.com
Scott Gomez was in San Jose on Saturday to meet with the Sharks about a possible fit with the organization, sources have told ESPN.com.
The veteran center, 33, became an unrestricted free agent this week after being bought out by the Montreal Canadiens.
Gomez will still be paid his pro-rated $4.5 million salary that the Habs owe him for this season, plus whatever deal he strikes with the Sharks, if indeed both sides decide to make a deal.

STATE OF THE ART; Cellphones Made Easy
By David Pogue
Published: June 5, 2003
Red phones, blue phones,
Cellphones, new phones!
Look at all the things they do:
This one has a camera, too.
One has built-in G.P.S.,
One plays Tetris, Clue and Chess.
Some play films while making calls,
Some find studs inside the walls,
Some do e-mail, some play jazz,
I'm not sure what stuff mine has.
Soon they'll be so slick and small,
Cellphones won't make calls at all!
IT'S too bad Dr. Seuss, a noted lover of silliness, didn't live to see today's cellphones. Their features are so far-fetched and nonsensical, they make Horton and the Whos look like subjects for ''Biography.''
The reason is as plain as the bill on your desk: photos, movies, games and text eat up a lot more cellular minutes than talking alone does. The more you send, the more you spend.
But beware the backlash. For every consumer who wants to know which phone is the best camera or the best organizer, a few others surely want to know which phone is the best phone.
I challenged each cellular carrier to send me not its fanciest handsets, but its simplest: models designed for the iconoclasts who still think phones are for talking.
The contenders include the Nokia 3590 (from AT&T), Nokia 3595 (Cingular), Nokia 3585i (Sprint), Motorola i35s and i60c (Nextel), Samsung R225 (T-Mobile), Samsung A460 (Sprint), Kyocera 2325 (Verizon) and Motorola 120e (Verizon). In this reality show, the winner isn't the product with the most features, but the one most dedicated to excellence as a portable telephone. Here is an assessment of some of the hits and misses on that score.
ONE-BUTTON SILENCER -- Do Nokia executives actually use Nokia cellphones? If they did, they would soon realize that turning a cellphone's ringer off -- every time they walk into a movie, seminar, meeting or bedroom -- is an important and common function. Perversely, Nokia buries this function in a menu that requires four button presses on two different sides of the phone.
And if that doesn't sound so bad, you've obviously never sat in church and had your pocket suddenly emit ''Ride of the Valkyries'' at 90 decibels.
Incredibly, not one of these phones offers a Ringer Off switch. But the Kyocera and Samsung models at least go mute when you hold down a certain key for two seconds. Second best are Nextel's Motorola phones, with side-mounted volume buttons.
A POWER BUTTON -- Engineers must love irony. Why else would you have to click the Start button in Windows to see the ''Turn off computer'' command?
In the same vein, you turn on the Samsung and Kyocera phones by holding down -- that's right -- the End key.
Call me a Grinch, but a separate power button, as on Motorola and Nokia models, does wonders for user-friendliness.
RETRACTABLE ANTENNA -- Just once, I want to hear that Verizon guy on TV say: ''Can you hear me now? No? How 'bout now? Hold on, I'm losing you. I'll call you back.''
In any case, no cellphone works everywhere (although despite my jest, Consumer Reports ranks Verizon as No. 1 in national coverage). Before you buy the phone, inquire about coverage where you live and commute.
But most carriers say that a retractable antenna, as opposed to one hidden inside the phone, boosts your reception. If nothing else, pulling it out gives you the satisfaction of knowing you did all you could. In this roundup, only the Nokia 3595, the Nokia 3590 and the Motorola 120e lack pull-out antennas.
PHONE BOOK -- Every phone in this derby lets you record a new phone number by typing it, pressing a menu key, and then tapping out the person's name. And that should be that. But on Nextel's Motorola i60c and i35s, you're not permitted to store a number until you choose a Type for it (like Home or Office). On the Samsung R225, you're not released from duty until you choose between two storage locations -- the phone or the memory card -- which is surely a baffling distinction to most owners.
Every phone here displays your phone book with the touch of one key. But on the Kyocera, the 10 most frequently called numbers also appear at the top of the list. This gift of software frees you from the idiotic ritual of having to name your boss ''aaaYertle,'' your father ''aaMarvin K. Mooney,'' and so on, to make them appear at the top of the alphabetical list.
RECENT CALLS LIST -- The Motorola i60c, Motorola i35s and Kyocera phones track your incoming, outgoing and missed calls in a single list instead of three separate lists as their rivals do. Little icons let you know which calls were which -- but why should it matter? When you just want to call someone back, you shouldn't have to remember which party originated your last chat.
RING VOLUME -- If you can't hear it, you can't answer it. And unless you walk around with your phone clipped to your belt, it probably spends some of its time socked away somewhere muffled. You won't have that problem with the great-sounding Nokia 3590 -- or the Nextel phones, whose loudest ring would be audible from Whoville.
KEY SHAPE AND SPACING -- In this era of tiny phones with tiny keys, this is not the time to experiment with avant-garde key shapes. On the Nokia 3595, 2 and 5 sit on opposing ends of the same seesawing key -- ditto 8 and 0; 1 and 3; 4 and 6. This infuriating arrangement serves no purpose except to make dialing take longer.
The keys on the Samsung A460, meanwhile, are impossible to dial without looking; they're not only flush against each other, but their surfaces are also flush with each other, making it tedious to dial. Otherwise, pick the feel you like for your keys: clicky (Samsung R225, Kyocera, Nextel phones) or mushy (Nokia 3585 and 3590, Motorola 120e).
SCREEN AND TYPE CLARITY -- The lettering on the Motorola i60c and i35s screens is so blocky, it looks as if it's made of Lego. The company's 120e model gives you a choice of two type sizes, but at the larger one, only two lines of type fit on the minuscule screen.
Special honors go to the Kyocera for its superb and easy-to-follow on-screen displays, and to the Nokia 3595, which has the only color screen in this contest. (At least you'll have something pretty to look at while you try to dial on its goofy key layout.)
BELLS AND WHISTLES -- Each phone has unique features, some of them welcome. For example, when the Nokia 3590 rings, a bright, cool white light shines through the top, the keypad and the side panels, making the phone easy to find in a crowded gym bag. Motorola's black, brawny beauties, the i35s and i60c, offer extremely clear speakerphones and the addictive pleasure of Nextel's unique walkie-talkie feature (which expands to national range this summer). And the Motorola 120e and Kyocera offer voice recorders (''Note to self: Pick up some green eggs and ham'').
ADDING IT ALL UP -- It's surprising how many carriers entered Nokias as contestants in this simplicity showdown, considering that they come with nonretractable antennas, no ringer-off switch, and complex menus.
If you want tiny and trendy, try out Samsung's classy, blue-and-silver model R225 from T-Mobile. It sounds spectacular, its battery life is surprisingly good, and it's free if you sign up for service online.
But the grand prize winner, by a huge margin, is the Kyocera 2325, available from Verizon. Maybe its designers were sequestered in some bunker, far from the conventional wisdom of phone design, or maybe they had just had it up to here with the silliness of rival phones. The ringer volume won't exactly wake the dead, but this is otherwise a nearly ideal phone. As a bonus, it runs on that vast Verizon network and it costs only $30 (with a contract, of course).
It is, in short, a superior, simple-to-use phone whose crucial features are always one key press away -- yet one that offers smart touches like a voice recorder, voice-activated dialing and an earpiece that boosts its volume automatically when you're somewhere noisy.
Even Horton would welcome that.

I want to make a program that will make a pop-up appear at a certain time in the future, eg. 5:00 tonight. Basically, the program is a reminder/notification system for appointments, meetings, etc.
My first instinct was to create a sort of "Clock Listener" that would check the computer's time every minute or so and see if currentTime == alarmTime. However, I don't know if this takes up too much resources or if it is just a bad practice to have your program constantly doing things like that. Also, for the alarm to be accurate, I think it would need to check every second, rather than every minute (since if it isn't checking the seconds and will go off at 5:00:xx, it could go off at 5:00:59, which may be too late for some people's liking). Is checking the clock every second too much?
My second thought was when the program starts running, calculate how long it is until the alarm is set to go off (say, in five hours). Then, wait five hours, and then sound the alarm. But then I thought, though unlikely, it would be possible for the user to change the computer's time, and then the alarm would go off at the wrong time. So this doesn't really work.
I've seen some solutions that use threads, but I'm not familiar with those yet, so I'd rather not use them.
I'm leaning towards the first solution, but I want to make sure it's efficient and won't slow down other programs. Perhaps I'm overthinking it and checking the clock is a trivial operation, but I just wanted to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.
