. >> who was owen sullivan? >> owen sullivan was one the most notorious counterfeiters in colonial america. he came to america in the 1940s from ireland. he was an indentured servant and ends up in boston as a silversmith. he begins to counterfeit colonial massachusetts notes and building a huge intercolonial network that spans from rides, new hampshire, massachusetts, all over. >> how easy was it to counterfeit at that time? >> well, the printing quality of the bills is fairly primitive by our standards, but it did require tremendous skills as an engraver. one the things you see, most counterfeiters are former silversmiths because it takes dexterity to engrave a copperplate in reverse. that's what was required. >> how many -- >> was there a national currency or 13 different types of currency official? >> in the colonial era, 13 different types of currency. after the revolution, it becomes confusing. instead of colonial governments, you have private banks all printing their own notes. first hundreds then later t

march, which it sullivans march, just south of market. not only did it solidify and saddle, but when the ground slopes, and actually flows and moves latterly. some areas of mission creek and sullivan's marsh, that was on the order of 15 feet. it was significant. everything you see south of market was built after the 1906 earthquake. the longer the time between the 1906 earthquake and the time of construction, the more likely people forgot about all the damage that occurred in 1906. so they were not as sensitive and perhaps cautious as they should be. many of these buildings that we see south of market, while they appear to be in excellent shape and are performing well, have not been either seismically strengthened or had at the subsurface conditions improved, so they are waiting. there could be significant damage during the next major earthquake. >> that reminds me of one of the central questions i wanted to ask you. which is this example relief focuses on the point. that is, what would you recommend for someone who is considering purchas

sullivan the intents of the changes i made were to strengthen rent-controlled for the attendants. if you could summarize for everyone, what those protections are that are laid out currently in the development agreement that would insure in force -- enforcability. i want you to give an idea of how strong you think the enforcement is and what protections exist in case this happens. >> thank you, president chiu. i spoke this morning. i am going to summarize some of my words. i will first talk about what is in the development agreements. we will have to answer additional questions about any specifics. he generally does not allow cities to impose rent control. there are three exceptions to that rule. one of them is when rent control is included in a contract with a public agency. that language has banned in the development agreement for a long time. we have cited all of the reasons we believe we fall within that exemption. we have the developer a greeting in a separate letter that they are providing. it would not be possible to develop this project. it would not be financially feasible

andrew sullivan has more on this. is it a case that we have been talking about a slowdown in the u.s.? has it or does it now look like it's much more severe than we thought? >> i think the worry with this jobs number is if they are not creating jobs, then, yes, the slowdown is not only more severe than we thought there will be more of it to come. the key thing here is that the u.s. investor drives the u.s. economy. and if the consumer, if there are not jobs there are not consumers. if there are not consumers, they're not buying goods from the rest of the world. >> and we've seen the slowdown in manufacturing numbers which would bear that out. just before we move out of the u.s., how does the end of qe2 play into all of this? >> it's one more uncertainty for the market. they said they will continue rolling over the money they already invested in this and trying to keep the interest low. but the worry is that interest rate also start growing. if that happens, that's going to stifle growth. >> we're talking about interes

earlier i spoke with andrew sullivan, director of trading at osk in hong kong.id no matter how prada would have performed today, it will still probably get better. >> -- a name that people like, a business they can understand by walking down the high street. but, if you're getting a lot of bad macro news, then they just become more cautious with their money, as simple as that. but with prada, i think, again, it's got a good story. it's a business that people understand. so the likelihood is that there will be a lot of people in it for the long term because they understand the business. >> and long term there being the key to investor profits. looking ahead the hong kong stock exchange says it has about 90 more companies on the ipo list this year. if global markets recover, it will be a better time for companies to list. if not, they may want to postpone that. >> absolutely, ramy. if you look at some of the performances, they've been pretty miserable, the average down about 15-odd percent. prada was five times oversubscribed when it went to potential shareholders
