with tourism from china growing exponentially, we are introducing a new program that provides consistentmenity and service standards at participating properties to meet the needs of our most important chinese travelers abroad. hilton is growing at record rates across asia pacific and china in particular. equally important, we see dynamic growth both in a number of chinese travellers from mainland china, and guests with chinese origins who live in other parts of the world. our new program is based on our global expertise and more than two decades of working in china. we put our expertise from working in key parts of the world ar. our key goal is to provide welcome for our chinese guests as they explore the world. at the heart of program is our promise to insure every guest feels cared for, valued, and respected. >> our program includes team members fluent in chinese. in the guest room, we provide chinese tea available on request and dedicated television channels broadcasting chinese programming. >> our expert at hilton menu is expand its -- expanded to include chinese items. breakfast is

micro blog is exponentially growing.avis: when you talk about freedom, it leads to more active participation. how do people know where the line is? is there a class? do you learned the hard way? have you learned as a citizen where the line is with regard to what you can in cannot say? tavis: in every country it is understood. in the u.s., child pornography is illegal. it is illegal everywhere. they know that certain -- teaching people how to blow up buildings is not acceptable. those kinds of things are known. there is a similar understanding in china. tavis: kai fu lee, we're sitting in mr. mccall of these young people. what does innovation look like these days? what does innovation look like? i want to ask a follow-up which i will tell you now, whether we should be scared of the innovation that china is bringing forth? what does innovation look like now? >> the true paradigm shifts tend to come from the u.s. almost all of the world. the american culture and the type of education you have and the fact that silicon valle

i was gaining weight exponentially. every day was a struggle.decided to talk to a television doctor. i told him about my insomnia, the vomit i would mysteriously find on my chest and the voices that hounded me every night and weekend. i wasn't prepared for what he was going to tell me. >> well, it sounds like you have children. [laughter] >> you're saying i have children? and tragically, through unprotected intercourse, i had transmittedded children to my wife. >> i just don't know what to do. you know, i feel like i can't even use bar soap around here without getting pregnant. >> you always hear about it happening to other people, but you never think it's going to happen to you. it's just so sad. hey, put those down! >> those are daddy's "star wars" toys. >> you're ruining it! it's so sad. i had to fight this disease. in my sleepless nights of research, i discovered children are a degenerative condition which affect every race across the globe. and similar to her pease, you are stuck with children for the rest of your life. but right when all h

it is their research that i want to reiterate the exponential decline in the likelihood of serious injury or fatality for every 5 miles that you lower the speed limit. it is a powerful tool to ensure safety in the streets if in the unfortunate event, despite all of our efforts, there's impact between a vehicle and a person. it is a very important effort. the department of public health is a great partner. another great partner in this effort is san francisco police department. very pleased to have the san francisco chief of police here. [applause] >> thank you. the message is clear -- slowdown. pay attention. keep the kids safe. those of you that were here this morning -- it is very hectic at drop-off times. the kids are very excited. i remember all too well when i was a little kid going to school in san francisco. you are excited to get back amongst your friends. a couple weeks ago, i was present when the young fan was hit by a car. nothing impacts a person more than an injured child, especially as serious as that was, and it is so unnecessary. it is a very expensive citation, but it is

the only thing interesting in technology is an exponential curve. and it doubles, and whilst we in our human experience live in linear times with linear skill sets, thinking what to do tomorrow, by the time tomorrow comes, technology has moved the world ahead a whole lot more than we could ever grass. so here we sit as humans in some roughly 20th-century experience of what consumer -- computer systems and networks and so on are, and the world is radically different in terms of innovation. the challenge is how do you get humans to the ball quicker to adopt these technologies and do so in a way that is safe and secure? that, for me, is the challenge of cloud. >> very nice. that leaves just into gina because she grapples with these problems every day. >> let me start by saying i feel far more at ease now in this prestigious venue after hearing "help" and "stocks -- "hell and "sucks." i can speak far more clearly to you now. in very humble being with these folks because these folks are architects. architects of technology and architect of cloud computin

we're having a year of record -- a ramp up slope of water main breaks that soon is going to reach exponential. man: the damage has been done. and this is the culprit. brunhart: today, 25% of our 5,500 miles of underground water pipes has reached the end of useful life. by the year 2020, 85% will have reached the end of useful life. woman: what to do? wssc is working on that costly problem right now. brunhart: it's not only true here, but it's true throughout our nation. narrator: across the united states, cities and towns are facing the challenge of aging and outdated drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure. it's a national problem. but it needs to be approached system by system. allbee: let's frame the systems in terms of the proper context. we have around 16,000 wastewater systems. we don't have a single wastewater system -- we have 16,000 of them. we have about 54,000 drinking water systems. narrator: issues facing new york city are very different from those in los angeles. and challenges facing small towns are very different from those in metropolitan areas. man: we have

it's kind of crazy. >> i don't know if they're going up exponentially. [laughter] but they are going up impressively. so americans have added, you know, between one and a half and two and a half year of life every decade for the last 120 years. that's huge. and, you know, one of the things i think that's really hard to understand about an aging world is that it's also a growing world. you know? so as the places where we all live are on this aging trajectory, the world's still going to add around seven, i mean, three billion people to the seven billion already on the planet. i learned this weekend that the u.n. projects that the clock will turn on seven billion people on halloween. [laughter] and it seems like a frightening scenario, but, you know, we have three billion to go, and one of the reasons for this is that we add years of life. it's not just that we're adding people, but we're adding years of life. so if you take the cohort that lives on the planet now and you compare them to a seven billion people who might have lived at the time of the caesars

sort of demographic is struggling and suffering in some way and african-americans are suffering exponentially. 17% unemployment, much higher than the national average. so in that sense there should be a lot of attention being paid to the part of our work force that are struggling the most. the interesting thing i thought about that discussion was to look more carefully at where the president's support is. although support for president obama among african-americans has come down slightly, it's come down from such a stratospheric high, 81% in the most recent gallup, it's not a crash down like in the rest of the electorate. most people, at least most democrats who are very supportive of the president have been very quick to say this is not anger and willingness to abandon president obama, it's just the sense of frustration the whole country is feeling the john: karen, on the republican side it seems to me the argument is going to come down to romney and perry and who has the better experience in creating jobs. romney made his case that he's got it in the real wompltd is that basically it? that

across the city right now and you look across -- you look into asia and other cities that are exponentially safer than san francisco. i mean, it's really frightening. so i support that funding. i understand that the state has taken away funding and we're simply replacing funding that we were dependent on for many years. that also argues for this. i thank the mayor for putting this forward. but i also agree with the woman who just spoke in public comment. personal services are not taxed. commercial rents are not taxed. there are many businesses where we have to start looking together, residents have to get together. there is a residential utilities tax in almost every jurisdiction in california. it's very small, but it adds up. you know, these little things with our 800,000 residents, a very little amount of money could fund some very important programs, like healthy france. so i really think we're going to have to get together and start talking about these revenue measures in addition, sales tax can just not be the only solution, but right now, i'm going to support this. so thank you. presi

much like the electronics business, just the speed of technology's, you know, exponential. it goes faster. and so that's it--we've always got to be out in front trying to find out what is that next thing that the consumers are looking for. >> and at the top of most consumer surveys is convenience. the variety of lettuce in each package eliminates the need to buy a lot of different heads of lettuce, and thus allows for customized blends. also, the petite size and shape of each artisan lettuce head lets folks have a quick and easy preparation as well as flexibility in sizes and cuts. in fact, the lettuce only needs two cuts, a quick rinse in the sink, and a crisping in the fridge, and you're all ready to plate. ok, julie, we're at the last--my favorite step--the eating process. we've cut, we've rinsed, we've crisped. now what do we do with the lettuce? >> basically you plate it, get ready to plate it up. you put some oil and vinegar salad dressing with a little salt and pepper in it, and just toss it 'cause you don't want to cover it up with too much of a heavy thing. >> tast

that is on top of something that's a lot of collateral fraud you know you're getting through an exponential first i think the fundamental for crisis was far worse than you just described right so you have on top of the three phases of fraud that i just described the fraudulent inducement fraudulent scared ization and of course the fraudulent placement of those. securities and to funds around the world you also have the securities that have the the remedy if that were created on top of the fraudulent securities on top of that so that adds to the ponzi scheme i mean we keep coming back to this word technically legal it's technically legal but in a in a country like america or the u.k. where the banking lobby has effectively taken over and change the laws repealed last eagle brought in the securities modernization act and made fraud legal i mean if you make fraud illegal is it enough to say well it's technically legal i mean at what point do we say enough is enough we need to take stronger measures. well i think i think at the heart of the matter minutes there's not citibank's out of control i

to thirty five dollars an ounce the dollar thank you it that was the price now it has gone up exponentially so what does paul say and where should a colleague joining us for more now is lou rockwell he is chairman of the ludwig gun uses institute thanks for being here now nixon back then said that this decision was about protecting the dollar as a pillar of financial stability around the world was it or did it that the state did for exactly the opposite including the three decades of boom and bust we saw since then. well there's a reason a nixon was known as tricky dick and a person was lying when he really did all those things i remember the speech and he also impose price and wage controls in the manner of a dictator but it was a terrible thing again they also took the dollar off the remnants of the gold standard so i just executive this is own his own say so it was a terrible thing what this inaugurate it was for the first time in the history of the world money that was purely discretionary that is money that could be printed up by the central bank in our case the federal reserve just ad
