the opportunities are about to get a lot bigger. a few miles down the road a south african petrochemical company called sassal is making a large foreign investment in u.s. history. in these empty grass fields, sassal is building a massive complex expected to bring 7,000 construction and 1200 high-skill industry jobs over the next five years. >> for each of the 1200 jobs that will be created because of our project in south-west louisiana, we estimate that six or seven other jobs will be created in the community to support those jobs - whether it's health care workers or restaurant workers. >> that is starting to reshape the region. >> there's not enough apartment complexes in lake charles, so what is happening in lake charles is the same thing that is happening in north dakota. they are building temporary crew camps. >> reporter: dozens of the camps are cropping up to handle a sas ol project that is so big it will close 26 public roads and cut into the uorate, which -- unemployment rate which hovers around 5%. >> now that energy drop

and in places far beyond -- going to get bigger and bigger and in places far beyond new york. >> they have raised over $1.5 billion in order to do that, where as lyft has only raised $250 million. >> i read into sting article that compared uber to amazon and the pricing strategy -- i read an interesting article. >> i don't think that is the long-term strategy for uber. they are making this move repeatedly to try to make sure they get a bigger slice of the pie away from taxicabs. it's still going to be a higher-priced product. for that you get convenience and a more comfortable ride. the interesting story today is the deal uber made with the new york attorney general, eric snyderman. they are agreeing to cap their prices at times of natural disasters, only when the city is in a state of emergency. when no other yellow cabs are on the street. no caps off or wants to risk it for the low price. the genius of uber was that when demand was high and supply was low, the pricing helped equalize those things. what the new york attorney general has brilliantly done is take that genius solution o

liberty bought a small steak and then got bigger and bigger. then it turned into a takeover.cynicism about liberty's and catches when they say this is not a bid. >> there is plenty of other consolidation in the media space. sky is getting proceeds of this and that leads people to want to watch sky again. we are seeinglly, talks of deal flow. >> sky did announced in may that they are working on a transaction to combine the three europe,erties in, italy, germany, and the u.k. in the u.s. 21st century foxx said yesterday a try to buy time warner, cnn for moreand than $80 billion. big deals and big changes coming to media. >> big decisions for regulators. >> i think regulators in areington will decide -- inside themselves with the bible for. possibly beside themselves with the work. at&t is buying directv. media companies are making big moves to try to come to a reckoning with technological forces that are changing the way people consume content. >> the times they are a-changing. making of deals, fiat's owners are exploring a possible takeover deal, according to manager magazine.

>> it used to be that if you wanted a bigger, more powerful computing platform, you had to buy a bigger powerful, and geometrically more expensive computer. alternately it got to the point where there were not computers big enough to handle google, facebook. they invented this platform that is described as scale up. want to make it bigger? add inexpensive commodity resources and it scales out on demand. it is infinitely scalable and much less expensive than the old monolith. >> interesting to think that the architecture that that requires, how you design computers cannot he all my computers go here, it will happen somewhere before it gets to this thing that spreads out the work and process that has to be done. >> it requires an orchestration in what they called provisioning , which is what open stack is. it is an open source platform managed by the open stack foundation. >> open source just means a lot of people can work on it, fix it, invent new things to make it work better. yes, but there are companies that are commercializing open-source. one is called the stent cloud computing. rac

but if we're offering bigger businesses to take over the bigger spots that smaller businesses are not willing to take, then you're also willing -- they're also willing to take residents in that community and offer them jobs or people that are hungry that are in that community that are willing to walk or transport or bus or park or check on them. but they usually come in and take over and kind of -- >> you have 32nd. >>> they usually come over, they come in and it helps the community. then more people are willing to go and apply for a job in their community, that they're willing to make out the spaces that are on that store front. they are making it a little bit brighter, a little bit nicer whereas other people are struggling to invest and marketing. they already have that money. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> the next speaker card is for don saunders and then peter cohan after that. >>> hello, my name is dawn saunders. i'm speaking on behalf of myself and the youth i work with at larkin street youth services. i work with homeless youth. and the last time i was here

it's a matter of churches being built bigger.y say they are targeted because the religion is becoming too big. christians are 50% of the population here. congregations are growing 10-20% annually. they have been spending more money pon grander churches and -- on grander churches and bigger crosses in a country that is basically atheist and weary of anything that would undermine the ruling communist party. >> this church replaced its cross with a bigger, brighter version in time for christmas. >> there was no reason given to us. they came to say the provincial bosses wanted the cross to be removed. >> church leaders say it amounts to persecution. >> translation: as chinese citizens we are meant to have human rights. we don't have any. they won't listen to us, and do whatever we want. >> as the stand-up continues, construction on new churches has been halted. in those that have been completed, part of daily worship has become the evening vigil. wondering if the wrecking ball is on its way. >>> fighters in egypt's northern sinai kil

it makes sense for content companies to get bigger. >> thank you for joining us. our bloomberg news reporter on the story. i will bring in david kirkpatrick, author of "the facebook effect." matches rupert murdoch who wanted to put time warner in play. some of the big silicon valley companies were rumored to have won a time warner -- wanted time warner. >> i would downplay the idea that google would want to buy time warner. they would experience something comparable to what they experience when they bought motorola. a company with an inferior business model. they did not know what to do with it. they figured out how to get rid of it. google has -- pretty much all the silicon valley companies have way better business models in the long run. they have much better margins than time warner. time warner is a great media andany, much more efficient slimmed-down. it makes a lot of sense for companies like companies to combine with one another. fox and time warner have overlap in their capabilities, and scale and efficiency matters for this industry. i would not be surpri

that's the bigger question. bezos' plan has been we're taking the losses, but we will make it up in time down the road when it matters. >> you and i had the conversation this was a risky bet for amazon. we understand they want to get into the smartphone market. motorola had trouble, blackberry, why discuss it? if you're not apple or samsung, why would they make this move? is it the right way to spend cash to you when everybody goes you to shop. >> interesting question. i think fundamentally they need to be in the phone space even if it's not ultimately successful. it gives them one different shade. apple has the device that connects to the tv and the phone, that's a competitive advantage that they want to keep people continuing to buy products and see them as a commerce giant. having that entire vertical integration is key. >> the price is $199, which is pretty much expensive when i can get a phone for free when i want to. let's talk about the kindle. the one thing that wowed wall street and, of course, consumer

. iphone a little late in the bigger screens. suspect good pent-up demand and i wouldn't be surprised in the 70 million to 80 million range. not at all. >> chris what do you think happens when with inventory here? i mean, we should expect the 5s to stick around after these new phones are introduced. maybe even a 5c. does apple have to draw down inventory beyond where they had it last quarter and is that going to possibly hit the iphone number that people are looking at? or might they keep more of these phones around, because arguably, a blalarger screen iphone is a market, not necessarily something current iphone buyers would had off to get? >> i suspect the latter is more appropriate. i think we've now gone through multiple generations of iphone and ap has a good history. i believe that they believe that the 6 is a different platform that will just generate a different size and category. so i think they will keep the 5 around for quite a bit longer. it's selling well in emerging markets at the lower pricepoints. the newer phone,
