with me is priya lakhani, founder and ceo of century tech. we will begin with the independent‘s story. it is a very nice picture. but a deeply frightening story. absolutely, this has rocked the world, in terms of reaction we have seen from dozens of nations, taking action against russian —— russia over this. this is great. she is up, she is eating and drinking, is what we know. daniel samford, our correspondent, said she was talking as well. that is interesting, because obviously russia were asking for contact with herjust recently because they want to get to the bottom of this. what we are seeing, actually, as a result of all of this, with what is going on between us this, with what is going on between us and the us and russia expel in diplomat... and more on that in a second. —— expelling diplomats. but even the use of the word, in proving rapidly, that has a big impact on many people who have so heard so many people who have so heard so many versions of what this nerve agent might do and what state it might leave them in. —— improving rapi

priya lakhani is founder and ceo of century tech. lovely to see you.ve a look at the accusations that president trump is going around, they pay little or no tax. we will start on that, shall we? well, let's start on that, shall we? well, let's start on that because it is not quite true. 0bviously, amazon has had battles in the us and europe about not paying tax, they have an issue with a marketplace where they have third—party vendor is where tax is not then passed on and so there is not then passed on and so there is an issue there, but we are used to president trump tweeting things and we look at it and say actually, is that factually correct? i am not sure this is about that and if i am allowed to be cynical, i think there is an issue with the fact thatjeff bezos obviously owns the washington post, they were very critical of donald trump, is the world's richest man, iam donald trump, is the world's richest man, i am sure that donald trump would love to be the world's which is man and i think that this is all a bit personal. 0k, there is a natural ta

century learning. it's also a big businessor america's tech companies. the global educational technology market generated revenue last year of a estimated $18 billion. so it's no surprise tt app wants a bigger piece of that market. today, apple's ceo, tim cook, t tohe stage hereht lane t high school in chicago where he introduced new products and apps for teachers and students. >> at apple we care deeply about education because we love kids. and we love teachers. we loveat creity and curiosity. and we know that our products can help bring t out creative genius in every kid. >> reporter: apple set u a demo room at the school showing off new ipads and apps. analysts who attended thesa eve this could be a smart move. >> the education is about 15% of apple's business. and the reason why this helps is this is the first time we have a comprehensive suite of management tools and curriculum around icios d specifically the ipad, which is critical to education. >> reporter: apple has a real fight on its hands, though. im cook's company is not the dominant force if

. >> switching gears a bit, the other big issue right now in tech and telecom is consolidation. we have disney pursuing 21st century fox, we have a fight in court over at&t and time warner, so i guess my question here is what do you think about the consolidation of the tech and telecom and media industries? is it concerning to you that these big companies are getting bigger? >> guest: i'm always concerned when you see big companies getting bigger. and i think we are wise as members of congress to be watchful. i think the fcc is wise to be watchful as we see different mergers beginning to take place. >> do you have any thoughts on the sinclair and truck wound merger in -- tribune merger in particular? >> guest: i think that the concerns that are there, my hope is that we continue to watch, watch that. i think we all are concerned as you see the discussions about some of these mergers that would take place. you want to make certain that people have access to local news. you want to make certain that they have access to things that are real and truthful. >> and on the tech side of things, at the moment the federal tra

fundamentally a downtown expansion plan of tech office space into our long-time soma central neighborhood. our alternative vision is to build a real 21st century neighborhood central south of market that does include a substantial amount of tech office space but puts first the neighborhood building. , the with housing and all that entail. we're submitting a pab -- packet and we have gone through the implementation section and marked up all the necessary changes to implement our proposal. so it's all there. i just want to focus today on a couple of the most critical issues. and after the overview, samantha meier will address our housing program and joyce lee will talk about the community empowerment not yet in your plan but are now open to incorporate. the overview is this is an office plan. when you look at the acreage chart, you can see very clearly that the staff has always proposed to zone most the cmuo office first district. the current proposal, 106 acres is about two-thirds of the whole area. our proposal instead would be less than one-third-. the mur and mug, the department only proposes 27 acres. that's 17% of the district for housing-

tech x- rays. >> reporter: a 6th century text written by the greek philosopher galen.s of years of times after galen's work was transcribed on that parchment, someone else needed something to write on and basically just erased his work. >> scraped it off, turned it 90 degrees and overwrote it with this book of psalms for days of the week. >> reporter: while the religious text has its own value, a research team has found a way to undo the erasing. >> it's been opened up. it was folded and placed in this mount. >> we can essentially see the different elements and different types of ink in the document itself. >> reporter: computer goes to work enhancing the results and there it is, that blue text emerging perpendicular to the pink text, the ancient galen translation lost for centuries until now. >> it's amazing to think what we can do today with the new technologies that are being developed. >> reporter: it's very much 21st century technology erasing something that happened in the 11th century so we can see what was written down in the 6th to 9th century which might tell

tech. all the major wars are of the 21st century. it is going to break out in continental europe. >> isn't this sheryl sandberg's opportunity? i love her. she's a hero. i love the book. i love the messaging. she's in a dark hole here. she had time last weekend to do an interview with the "new york times" about the noofive-year anniversary about a book i love, but she doesn't mention this. if she does have political aspirations or mark does, or she want s to do right by the commo person, stand up and say, listen, we clearly know the right things to regulate us. here they are. people love facebook. they'd stay with them. >> well, i'll disagree with scott for a second. i think the european regulation has proven to be dangerous. the law in germany is killing satire. the right to be forgotten is rewriting history. it is going to get worse. facebook can see the future. it can see it in europe. they know what is coming. they can get ahead of it here. sheryl sandberg and mark zuckerberg can say, we don't like that vision, but let's regulate

what they're doing is not just building truck from them 20th century, look ports and roads but are billing technological infrastructure and the tech companies in china are spending a lot of time really expanding into these marks, working with these markets,ing products and being an ally both in raising the trends of economic growing and being able to benefit from that. think china looms over some of the stories that you talk about in this book -- >> to put it mildly. >> how should we be thinking about china? >> well, we should be thinking about china ambivalently. we should certainly respect and i guess even celebrate their innovation. i think many chinese tech companies -- you at the this better than i do -- many chinese tech keys are actually more innovative, better products, more consumer friendly products than american companies. but i also think we should be very fearful of the future but a what china and the new leadership there is perfecting and i using that word carefully -- perfecting -- a new kind of digital owellannism in which they now have the technology through facial recognition, and all the other data collection to

tariffs will target the high-tech industries that china is hoping to dominate this century.shington is wilbur ross, u.s. commerce secretary. great to have you with us. to floatu don't like around the president, but can you give us any clarity in terms of what to expect in terms of tariffs on chinese products or restrictions of chinese products in the united states? >> i'm not going to get ahead of , i think his announcement will be forthcoming. the purpose of the whole thing the problems we've found with intellectual property rights. forst technology transfers, forced partnerships, that kind of thing. forst licensing, cyber security breaches, all sorts of problems that are designed to penetrate the property rights of american property -- of american companies. business is say a lot of the technology they use is sold within china, and actually, tariffs on the incoming goods is not going to crack down on what we've seen. >> i don't think that is quite true. there are codes and things embedded in high-tech situations that are not that easy to get from the outside or by designin

and that's the problem with a lot of tech startups you know if i were to google to apple they become completely dominant and we all know from the nineteenth century any monopoly gets low power will exploit it france's former president nicolas sarkozy has been placed on the formal investigation to be accused of receiving illegal campaign donations in the late libyan dictator moammar gadhafi so he is alleged to have received millions of dollars from gadhafi when he was running for office in two thousand and seven he's denied any wrongdoing and has more from paris. well this is the first time that a former french president has been placed under formal investigation for illegal foreign campaign funding foreign funds planned during presidential campaigns here in france well nicolas sarkozy was questioned by french police for just over twenty four hours that non-tariff police station just behind me it's just outside of paris and then he was released earlier on thursday afternoon around five thirty local time and placed on a conditional release we don't know whether that means bail whether there will be restrictions on his travel but what we do know is

revolution, and i don't mean the revolution from 11000 years ago, i mean tech substitution at the beginning of the 20th century, the shape of the curve is really similar from 41% down to 2% in industrial jobs we've gone from 31% to 7% in the shape of that curve is going to continue to go down. the way that it goes down matters a lot to particular family lives and we should have bigger discussions about what that looks like, but we should start by understanding where we are in history and to the second point, when you talk about protectionism as if it's going to protect those jobs, you don't have any theory to defend your position and you don't have any history to defend your position. here's what actually happens when there is more protectionism and let's talk in a little bit of detail about the current steel tariff idea. this is what happens if we put these steel tariffs in place. consumers lose. whenever there are more tariffs which just means tax on consumers, consumers on both sides of a border lose. you are telling voluntary parties who wanted to make something and sell it and other parties who want to ma
