the investigation lead from ip gp, and also the hp lead from dnr. we will start with you, bruce. how long have you been working seismonitor on the planet? bruce: i guess i was there on the first date. before there was a spacecraft or even instruments, there is the scientific questions. those have been around since the beginning of planetary exploration. those questions are something that intrigued me when i was in graduate school. and finally, in the late 1980's and late 1990's, i started working on sanitary seismic missions. this particular mission really kind ofcoming into play like ideas were coming together, in the early 2000's. so i have been for working on this, about 25 years. you can imagine how incredibly exciting it is for me to be here today. not 25 years, not two years, not even two days away from launching to mars. this is really amazing. and the science that we want to do with this mission, and the reason we are going to mars, is the science of understanding the early solar system. how planets form? how rocky planets form? the way we can do this is by using the fact

the ceo is a former person that worked with hp and sypris solutions.ons. this is some -- and surprise solutions. we see the stock up now for fujifilm. india is the world's fastest-growing oil market. oil minister spoke exclusively to bloomberg, saying he expects oil price to remain reasonable. $.49 in, we are of this [indiscernible] energy price must be reasonable. we don't expect a $40 oil price. countryre a sensitive with its own issues. the price is [indiscernible] >> where do you do when it comes to iran oil? do you reduce your imports because of sanctions? >> everybody in this industry is watching -- the new geopolitical level. >> saudi arabia has pledged to mitigate the impact of the sanctions when it comes to the higher oil price. what do think they can do to help is the market? >> india is emerging-market. of all the most favored of the energy players. we are open to one market. we have long-standing reliable partners who understand countries like saudi arabia, uae, iraq. with the changing geopolitics, best withvery strong south america. india

waiting for the hp numbers -- adp numbers to come out. you have the macro fundamentals in the u.s. any bottom-up analysis you have as well. it is hard to find out where the direction will come from. david: we keep hearing the fundamentals are there. alix: if you get inflation without the wage gains, or if it is bifurcated, that will be a problem going forward. we have the adp coming out. employment up 100 78,000 jobs, that is lower than estimates. we know that adp has not been a great signal for what we get on the job report on friday but nonetheless a disappointment. 178,000 jobs added for adp. and a proper sized down quite a bit to 106 he 3000. david: remember last week, the unemployment numbers were actually higher. initial jobless claims were higher. i don't know if that means anything or not. when you have trade issues, how that is going to impact industries in the u.s. president trump has says he will move ahead with plans to impose tariffs on chinese imports and curb investment in sensitive technology, all right pressure on beijing before the next round of trade negotiations

i think those misperceptions exist more in europe than the u.s., but again the hp vaccinations -- hpv vaccination coverage is not as high as we would like. it is frustrating, because it is a cancer vaccine and what parent would not want to prevent their child from getting cancer. when you talk to parents about the vaccine, they are actually more than willing to prevent their kid from getting cancer. inetimes it is the providers this case misunderstanding the vaccine and not been able to speak as articulately as they should about the safety and effectiveness, so this is another space where i am hoping working with professional organizations, that can provide the right information, that they can talk effectively to parents. mr. bertuzzi: i think we go back to the issue of sharing information, communication, trying not to preach, but rather to teach. and that is probably a very important aspect, but also for the scientific community at large. we are not here to give you the truth, but rather have a conversation. dr. fauci: with regard to that vaccine, as i said a moment ago in response t
