but as mark said i don't know if obsolete is the word yeah. we've got this rule undertaking the c puc and it's going to be a big one. quite the social scientists he covered a lot. it's obsolete because we have a number of cabs and that's going to give you our hard numbers. you're going to have a universal app in all the cabs and it's all the information is going to be there. there's going to be hard numbers to go by. i've been driving for 10 years and the numbers are saying we need more cabs. so that's one thing and lastly, i want to throw a scenario out there i'm on the madalinas waiting list i've got a $250,000 house in west oakland. so go do what you want me on the dying list for a $50,000 down payment do you think i'm going to buy a madalinas or a luxury item for myself >> yeah. i feel for him arrest i have cold feet about buying a house because i don't know what's going to happen. somebody brought you up that the ride shares are elitists and don't serve the community. when i create our apps i hope you'll allow people to pay cash not just

appreciate that. >>> is marriage becoming obsolete?e still getting married. they're delaying it a lot, but very rarely do you actually encounter somebody who is still not married at 50, 60. eventually everybody still gets married. >> people want to be partnered. i think they're planning better. so people are talking more and going to therapists to deal with what are the things we need to know now so we don't have to deal with that later. >> some people are already the product of broken marriages, so many times they say, well, look what happened to my mom and dad, look what happened to my friends. why should i be married? another statistic? what is in it for you if you find a good marriage? what's the point? what do you get? >> partnership, like i said. >> and people want to connect. out of everyone on the face of the planet, there's someone that says i want to live the rest of my life with you. >> i'm judd playing devil's advocate. >> i don't know that you need a license, but it helps to solidify the relationship. even when people talk

it starts with when old forms of public transportation become obsolete. now, the earliest forms of public transportation were omnibuses, which were really large coaches pulled by horses. but in the 1860's people came up with the new idea, the horse car. a horse car was essentially a little car that horses could pull but it used rails, on the ground. rails reduced traction. so horses could pull larger loads. horse cars really started taking over all across the united states in the 1860's, but they had some draw backs as you might imagine. can anybody think of something that could be a bit of a problem with horses pulling cars? yes. well, for one thing, horses were living animals and they could get sick. so some industries, some companies, lost thousands of horses to disease, which was just terrible for business. the other thing is a horse can drop up to 10 pounds of fecal matter on the street every day. so you're talking about up and down market street, tons of these cars going back and forth every day. it was just a public noose -- nuissance, you might sa

our taxi newsletter was obsolete before it came back from the printer the flyers that we made for the meeting are did destined for the garbage. i can't see how you can good forward at this point with any kind of a coherent decision until we know what's going to happen with uber and side car and lift the california public utilities commission currently has a proceeding going on supposed to term innate 6 months from the time it started which would be 2 months from the time that you know this hearing is going to take place and we are facing an un limited number of vehicles providing the same service that we are and if they get a green light from the state -- they are already going full speed ahead at that point there's nothing to stop them and they are going to drive everybody into the ground and you are helping them and first of all it's your fault that we're facing -- they should have been skwelshed only san francisco sat on their hands and then let the state takeover so put off any hearing on more cabs until we know what the state is doing thank you. applause. >> robyn low. >> next sp

now proudly say that only 25% of our nation's bridges are structurally deficient or functionally obsolete. that's right. there is a three-in-four chance if you drive across a bridge, you will make it to the other side. and america can hold its head high, knowing when it comes to our nation's levees, 8% are in acceptable condition. of the remaining levees, 22% are unacceptable, 42% are constructed of old marshmallow peeps, and 28% don't want to work. they just want to bang on the drum all day. ( cheers and applause ). nation, i believe this inspiring d-plus is a grade we can all be proud of. in fact, i believe we should hang this report card somewhere high where everyone can see it. but not a bridge. ( laughter ) it may not be able to handle the load. ( laughter ) but keep those party hats on, nation, because i've got more good news to report. an environmental protection agency study says that more than half of u.s. rivers are unable to sustain life. but i am an optimist. i prefer to see our nation's rivers as half not a phosphorous-soaked-aquatic graveyard. and this summer you can have ju

the lastest, the laptop and the pc, will become obsolete.ompanies saying that microsoft will be obsolete by 2017. >> the rumor of microsoft's demise have been greatly exaggerated there have been so many times they have been labeled "doomed." we are seeing that in this graphic that google's droid will take over windows and apple's operating system and the mac operating system will take over blackberry's rim but the truth is, what microsoft does, they wait to see if a product will succeed. then it jumps in like the 800-pound gorilla and takes over which we have seen with browsers and software and with video games. maybe that is what they are waiting to do with the tablet. >>heather: do they have the capability to do that? >> i would not be the one to say they are going under. we are seeing the use of smartphones and tablets grow. in question that will happen. i would not say microsoft is gone. >>heather: there are predictions made in terms of how they will be used in the future. some of the predictions, the immediate future. >> imagine you are

students to learn, but they, themselves must learn along with the students, because knowledge gets obsolete and new knowledge evolve. singapore is very much conscious on the need to change. >> reporter: the world of technology is constantly evolving. now one of the world's most highly developed countries is making efforts to cultivate the human resources it nds to shape its future. nhk world, singapore. >>> japanese researchers say they hatve succeeded in resech researching a disease that causes muscles to move and hope it will lead to new drugs to treat the disease. the group is led at the sent for cell application at kyoto university. muscular distrophy is a degenerative disease with no effective treatments. the group reprograms two cells in a patient with ips cells that can grow into any kind of body tissue. the researchers inserted a gene called mod and turned them into eletal muse cells. medical experts have known people develop muscular distrophy when their skeletal muscle cells are destroyed and said their recreated cells were also destroyed easily. >> translator: muscular d distroph

it wasn't long before some people saw business potential in not-new- but-not-obsolete either devices. "i think there's a huge market for used gadgets. if people can buy one for $100, they can justify it." true, some manufacturers offer buy-back programs to encourage upgrading. but independent of those programs are e-commerce websites besides ebay, such as gazelle.com and u-sell.com where you can buy any previous incarnation of iphone---because not everyone has to have or is willing to pay for the latest. "i don't feel like spending $500 for a phone. that's not me." this secondary market is growing also because americans are upgrading electronic devices--especially with the shift toward mobile--every year and a half. it used to be every two years. there is another alternative-- recycling. the environmental protection agency reports one out of four electronics are recycled. in ipo action this week-- sea world plunges into the trading world friday.shares are expected to price in around $24 to $27 dollars. also on friday, safeway spins off "blackhawk network holdings" -- which is a prepai

online resources render many law jobs obsolete, and that is one reason there is a glut of lawyers looking for work in their field. unemployment in the eurozone continues to reach record highs. the jobless rate hit a new high of 12% in the first two months of this year. an estimated 26 million people are without jobs. other grim numbers show european manufacturing slowed last month, signaling further contraction. the wall street journal is reporting that apple could release an iphone 6 as early as this summer. the journal quotes a source that says the next generation phone will be similar in shape and size to the iphone 5. the sources went on to say that apple is continuing to develop a less expensive iphone, destined for developing markets. apple declined to comment. a small airline wants passengers to "pay as they weigh." samoa air is catching flack for its pricing structure. flyers pay based on their weight per kilogram, along with the weight of luggage. the rates range from $1 to $4 per kilogram. the airline's ceo chris langton defends the structure, calling it the "concept of the futu

it's -- it's pretty obsolete at this point, i think. >> i heard of it. it's like -- you put some -- you put a tape in it, and then you click it and you listen to it. >> a cassette tape? like, something for music. >> oh, it's, like, you play music on it, and it's like -- they used it in like the '90s and '80s before cds came out. i actually wanted to start collecting some. >> back in the 1970s through the 1990s, cassette tapes were very popular. magnetic tape ran between two spools encased in a plastic shell. cassettes could come pre-recorded with, let's say, music on them, or they could be blank, allowing you to record what you want. [ mid-tempo music plays ] cassettes were bulky, and the tape was easily damaged. little wonder that they went the way of the dinosaur when cds and then mp3s were invented. with "speak of the week," i'm tatyana. >> in some schools, you won't see students carrying textbooks or notebooks or even pens and pencils. instead, you'll see ipads. students are using them for all sorts of subjects. teachers say that test scores have gon

folks were told that they are working on a program to basically call brick the phones or make them obsolete so there is no reason why want to steal them if they have no market value. we learned that the phones when they are stolen they are immediately worth $300, and they are available for $500. for each one of those reports people get smacked to the face or knocked to the ground. we hope manufactures and carriers can do something, we were told they were working on it and we actually learned that in another country they already have those devices. so i was going to talk to the commission, we should schedule this for a follow up where we send a letter to the cellphone manufactures and carrier as a commission saying it's putting our public at risk and wonder if we can calendar that for that purpose. and second in our lies

its disney's latest effort to cut costs, now that advances in technology have made some positions obsolete. kfc is bone free. the fast food chain is frying up a new concept by selling buckets of white and dark chicken chunks-- minus the bones. it's food focused on millennials. and the president of kfc says it's the biggest product change in the company's 60 year history. still to come why the key in the hotel industry is to sellthe building. the ceo of starwood which owns the westin and sherton will be here to share his secrets to success. thats later on. but first..... more reaction to the drop in hiring and why it has investors nervous about a spring swoon. thats next with bill moller after this in the know message. i wanted to be in the military since i was a kid. i served a total of 16 years. and at 19 years old, that's the first time i ever saw somebody die. coming back, i was raging. i started having pretty horrible nightmares. i started drinking a lot. i guess i never recognized it in myself. it all starts with going to the va. there's a whole community of veterans that just want to

at this point we have obsolete equipment. we cannot get replacement parts. the batteries are defective. our officers on the street may need to carry two or even three batteries with them for one of their shifts so that they continue to have access during the day. i think it's really important to note that motorola has told us, again, when we bought this system it was state-of-the-art 13 years ago. there's only 17% of their clients around the country who are still operating on this system, and they are no longer going to be supporting this system. the other 17% are already migrating over to more state-of-the-art systems. so, i think we can move to the next one. i guess one other point i'd just make is that, in fact, the radios are not n inter operable outside of san francisco. so, yes, our fire and police can talk which is a wonderful thing since, you know, when 101 california happened in the 1990s, that was a huge problem that we could not communicate with each other. now we can. but we can't have -- we can't go over to oakland and talk to oakland. if someon

of course these were made obsolete by container shipping. >> now we're up to sort of the middle of the waterfront up to the port ferry building here. and we've seen quite a lot of development along the ferry building. someone has told me that the bart 2 goes under here. is that right? >> yes. the ferry plaza which is the platform on the bayside of the ferry building is a public plaza, but it also has -- that's where the transbay (speaker not understood) in san francisco. in fact, last november when the voters approved tax increases to support the seismic retrofit of the bart system, the transbay 2 was one of their key focuses right now because it really is so fundamental to the whole system. so we're working with bart now to understand what their approach is for trying to do this and what kind of impacts it has on this area. >> this morning's ferry from tiburon. >> or lark spur. >> that's it, lark spur, the lark spur ferry coming up. and in the ferry building are the marvelous shops. this is food heaven in the ferry building. so the pilot boats go out and get stationed outside of golde

or maybe not even an evil and necessary part of government to have an intelligence service that obsolete absolutely there is no no no modern government no modern society. i don't know whether it's morally defensible defensible. but in terms of national security in terms of self-preservation absolutely has the cia gone beyond its its mandate or beyond a point where. it is now actually hurting its own goals it that that's what that was my sense of the whole you know the guy hang in there with the right torture thing and is that this this is not helping us but it it may help in the short run but it certainly doesn't help in the long run and if you're if you're waging a war for hearts and minds. it's probably counterproductive what has happened to the and again correct me if i mean you know this is about i always thought that the f.b.i. did domestic the cia did international that there was a wall between the two they could communicate to a certain amount extent but they didn't step into each other's territory unless absolutely necessary is that still the case and if one did a system here's w

on the because what i mean that you know the whole of this easy money thing is just it's becoming obsolete because the one group the benefits most is the government's on the one george was doing nothing about it you go back to two thousand and nine he was giving speeches about how what the. so to say we're going to help save us i mean the promises they made were quite extreme to the moment and to power of course they just forget it now the economy of course this is what about this idea of he brought forward of cutting the minimum wage because interestingly enough in the telegraph. which is considered to be more you know right when. there was a story i forget who the impossibly jerry warner was was arguing in favor of that actually minimum wage to be raised so here's another now first of all if if the left wing out there were smart they would jump all over that but of course none of them read the telegraph so they didn't even know that this right wing guy was arguing for higher minimum wage but what are your thoughts on what the trouble is i can see both sides of the only humans read jeremy

and over the next twenty four to thirty six months it will make all major simple life factories obsolete so people be able to share information and build things and that point will be able to break through a lot of jam you know with energy in the in the scarcity the artificial scarcity that's built into the system yeah i want to touch on that because this is something that you do a lot of work on in the energy related field and i want to get your thoughts on the idea of peak oil or you know people have mentioned that all the keep the cheapest oil has been already exploited and now the cost of getting energy resources oil resources as that become an extraordinarily expensive whether it's the tar sands or offshore drilling etc so the return on dollars spent getting that oil is dropping pretty sharply tell us where we are on the peak oil scenario we're past the p. eight which is why the wiseguys of the tot have stopped investing in industrial economies started to dingoes industrial economies like they were third world countries when you invest in a growth in a. economy that has no fuel supp

along the way there were car phones that were so revolutionary and no soul obsolete., against the law but it inspires the cellular telephone. the average saw this average prototype gordon gekko... if the 1980's. and in the 1990's cellphones got very user- friendly. and got much smaller. and this was even poked fun at in the movie, as you lander. the movie zoolander.. these days, there are new types of cell phones that can access the internet, music and even watch movies. >> will even from one year from now you will have a phone behind your ear or even under your under yourskin..now, apple is about to introduce the iphone six. as of last year, six- billion cell phones were in use around the world - and cell phone service is rapidly spreading throughout developing countries. >> jacqueline: big changes in the forecast. more rain in the bay area whites spread moderate at times. impacting us with spotty showers temperatures will also take a big dive. 60's and '70's nearly everywhere. as for friday and saturday drier conditions. a slight chance of rainfall in the north bay.

secretary powell said you have to set your policy then he saw the final draft in this state department obsoleted not want the speech given. and interest of time i want to jump forward. that was june 2002 by the way he goes back to the general assembly every year with a visit to new york you could not get around manhattan at all for a couple of days. yasser arafat was still the head of the plo. he was smart enough to realize although we said he had to go he was likely to get a bear hug released a handshake with george bush. colin powell was appointed and told of their fat appears don't let him get to the president we do not want that bono to undermine our policy. sure enough, arafat tried it and walk down the hallway to coffee and not office and out comes arafat to grab the photo and outcomes:: to throw him back against the wall. you never find of pitcher of george to be bush and yasir arafat. we thought we had a way forward to create a decent palestinian government which the goat -- israelis could negotiate some the forced arafat to fill the minister with the president and in june 2003 we have a
