it goes from hardisty, to steel city, to petoke, illinois, why? because there's refineries there and pipeline where it can work and go into the eastern part of the united states. oh, look it goes to cushing oklahoma, huge pipeline network that goes all over the country based out of cushing oklahoma. so it can go almost anywhere. and this idea that building a pipeline is somehow an unusual thing to do or a difficult thing to do well, let's just take look at all the pipelines we have moving hoyle and gas around this kufnlt the whole point is when you bring the pipeline through here, you interface with all the networks so you can move it all over the country. so for somebody to look at this and say oh, gee look, because it goes from hardisty and then it is all going to be exported, come on. let's tell meme people what's really going on. there's the pipeline now. it can go through many different routes across the country. so don't just take my word for it though, right. because i am an advocate for the pipeline. some will say wrl well, he's just pushi

that was the most innovative city at the time and silicon valley was orchards. 100 years ago, it's for was silicon valley because it was the steel capital powering the industrial revolution. 200 years ago america itself was a start up but we let the weight in the industrial revolution and we led the way in the digital revolution and that's now why we are the leader of the world with the leading economy. we need to be the most innovative entrepreneurial nation and we want to try on a policy level get is like immigration reform passed. it is really important that we all do whatever we can to embrace the next generation of entrepreneurs wherever they might be to provide the capital and make it easier to attract the talent and shyness not light on what we might be doing. -- and shine a spotlight on what they might be doing. it is pretty important.

cities has been falling. building fewer condominiums and as a result demand for construction material such as cement and steel is flagging. that's hitting the corporate sectors. another factor is consumption. people simply aren't spending the way they used to. look at the auto industry. sales of new cars last year were up 6.8% which sounds okay until you compare it to 2013 which sales rose by nearly 14%. that's more than double. >> what about the chinese government. how are they reacting to the data? >> officials told the news conference today the results are more within the expectations. last march, officials set their economic growth target for 2014 at around 7. 5%. the finance minister says if growth turns out to be weaker say 7.2% or 7.3% it would still be within the target range. the final result was 7.4% but officials have their work cut out to get there. >> translator: last year we faced many challenges and difficulties. the latest figure of 7.4% shows we have been able to overcome those difficulties. >> the gdp in the july to september quarter rose by just 7.3% the lowest rate since the global financi

steel was in full production. the impact economically with huge. it turned wheeling into a major city. because of its location on the ohio river and because the national road came through there as i mentioned before it was a transportation hub so naturally there were a lot of resources iron and coal. it was easy to transport goods like steel to market so industry was naturally drawn here. industry requires labor. because it was an industrial town there were a lot of jobs in these people came from very poor regions of europe or the middle east than they needed work. many times the patriarch, the man of the family would come to the united states many times the companies and wheeling would go to new york or one of the other ports of entry and recruit for their business. we have jobs and wheeling and that's how they ended up there. others came because family members lived there but they would send back money for a time and eventually many of them since their whole family. in terms of the italian committee there was a coal mine that was owned by a gentleman who had come from italy himself.

city at the time, 56 years ago. silicon valley was actually like orchards. 100 years ago, pittsburgh was silicon valley, because it was the steel capital powering the whole industrial revolution. we've seen waves of innovation in our country. we led the way in the agricultural revolution, in the industrial revolution. more recently, we led the way in this digit revolution. that's why we're now the leader of the world with the leading economy. but if we're going to continue to be the leader of the world we need to be the most innovative entrepreneurial nation. and that's also trying on a policy level to get things like immigration reform past so we can win a global battle for tenant. i think it's really important that we all do whatever we can to embrace the next generation of entrepreneurs wherever they might be and provide the capital, make it easier for them to track the talent so we have a more broadly dispersed innovation economy and it maximizes our chaps of being the -- our chances of being the leader of the world. it's important. >> that was really good. good ending. >> thanks.

and the city attorney looking at how we can make san francisco more attractive to get more bidders so we mitigated that risk but we're also fortunate because after the olympics the price of steel went down, the economy dropped, and we've already enticed all these people that we changed our business practices that they were more willing to come and we got outstanding jobs so you know, we planned and i thought we were smart but we were also fortunate and lucky that it happened so i just think that one of the things that we are doing and one of the lessons learned is do that risk assessment early in the process and i think that will determine what are somewhat key indicators that we need to pay attention and how do we mitigate it so our system improvement program we have a more robust risk management program and so maybe we should, as part of the sewer system improvement program maybe should talk about the risks and how we're dealing with each one of those risk registers. >> i think the question of contractor capacity is coming back. we've had more circumstances where there's only one bid. >> for consultants. >> yeah for consultants and i'm not sure what we can do to attract more

steel was in full production. so yeah, the impact economically was huge. it turned wheeling into a major city for west virginia. because of its location on the ohio river and because the national road came through wheeling, as i mentioned before, it was a transportation hub. naturally there's a lot of resources around here, iron or an cool. it was easy to transport goods like steel to market from wheeling. so industry was nationally untrue naturally drawn here in industry with choirs labor. and so, because it was an industrial town these people came from very poor regions of europe or the middle east and the needed work. so many times the pastry are commander of the family would come to the united states. many times the companies would actually go to new york or one of the other ports of injury and recruit for their business, say we have jobs in wheeling and that's how they ended up here. others came because family members were here. they would send back money for a time and eventually they sent for their whole family to come over. in terms of the italian community, there was a coal mine that was owned by a gen
