let's look at the dna of, say, microsoft which still makes a ton of money, shareholders are very happy at microsoft. executives are very happy at microsoft. but many do not care about money whereas executives at apple have priorities elsewhere. they generally do want to live up to the rhetoric that they often exhibit in their keynotes. they want to change the world. they want to create beautiful devices that transform how we interact with each other. >> what is stopping them? if they have those aspirations, your view would be that they are not doing that. >> manlike steve jobs comes once in a lifetime. i think it is severely limited when it does not have that kind of ruthless, take no prisoners among vision become iconic person driving the way the company ought to look. apple is wandering into too many fields. it is making acquisitions it had never run -- never did before. the beach deal is interesting because it was an admission of failure. everything apple has done with the cloud has been terrible. make cloud software so it bought some. that was a humiliating admission of defeat. it

john mccain and senator mccain, who are big supporters of defense, the sequestration, which capped defense spending at $500 billion, which really only takes it back to where it was, even if you control inflation in 2007, was caused by the cost overruns and the poor management. i mean, for example, the f-35, the new joint strike fighter, they started developing it before they had worked out all the bugs. and because the budget went up so much between 2001 and 2010, people didn't pay the attention that they should have, nor did they have the top management that they needed. >> lawrence korb, have to leave it there. nice to talk to you. soon we'll be talking to you again soon. by all accounts, this is going to take awhile. cristina alesci joins me now. planes and missiles don't come cheap. how quickly are these costs adding up? >> the pentagon mentioned this number, the average per-day cost. but anybody that's been paying attention to what's happening will notice that it's not much different than the number we got at the end of august. and we've stepped up the campaign significantly. just this week alone

the miners, selling them picks and shovels and wheelbarrows and clothing and supplies which were very expensive at the time. there were also stories of scams where you could get to california in a real hurry using such things as air balloon air ships and wind wagons which didn't exist but you could buy a ticket to get to california and show up at the appointed time to catch the air ship or wind wag wagon and they did not exist and you'd be holding a worthless ticket. during the course of the travels down the trail, a lot of times your animals, if you were traveling on the trail, your animals would wear out and you would lighten the load. you would throw heavy things out like anvils and stoves and extra wheels just to simply lighten the load and spare the animals the misery of pulling this wagon loaded down. we've now moved on to the pony express trail. in addition to the pony express delivering mail, which we'll talk about in a moment, there were stage lines operated by the pony express companies -- wells fargo and russell majors and waddle. the wagon that you see is called a stage coach and it's

at a time. then i cut the ends off. good old elmer's glue. and this is my little saw, whichappens to be the bottom of a pringle's can. it's not sharp. it won't cut a person, but it will cut these sticks just like a little saw. that's the only tool i use to make these. you can see why it takes eight to nine months to make one. >> why? >> just to pass time, basically. >> it's a farmhouse right here. a rough draft. okay? little dimensions to it so i know where i'm at. art is my sanity and my salvation. i mean that's what keeps me stable. >> i just come up with all kinds of little ideas. you have two of these like a little protection vent to keep the rain out of the chimneys. i found this out in the yard. it reminded me of air conditioning. that trips everybody out. they like my little grill. the bird can grill his worms i guess. and you get the exclusive of looking inside, with the fireplace and the light switch and the plug-in outlets. it won't be seen once this is completed. i put those in because right now, people seen it in progress. >> what i'm doing now, i got to put some

i look at which the mitigation at the time as they decide to move to a larger space or somewhere else. to me what stood out. i'm not sure this is something that is reflected in the p.m.d and not sure that it rises to the level of the appeal or p.m.d but i would put out there that there are potential let's look an other mitigations for maintaining the history of that site in ways that are not directly connected to the common wealth club being the tenant, although of course i support everything the common wealth club is going to do in terms of programming and having other resources in the building itself when they are there. so those are a few points in the historical resources and a couple other ones. this one is when we talk about greenhouse emissions for the building, the impact ggw when -- 1 when it talks about greenhouse emissions and it would be great to see more about that status what you are going to do to get to platinum status will get new status than just being a new building. that could be amended in the p.m.d and can help the cause of new construction and more environmental

which he politically opposes. so he said, so then we looked at the site and found these problems. issue is, they understand if the science is true, the whole ideological project falls apart because as i said, you cannot respond to a crisis this week that involves transforming the foundation of our economy. our economy was built on fossil fuels and still fueled by fossil fuels. the hear this from a lot of liberal environment groups that we can change completely painlessly, just change your .ight bulbs, tax and relax this is what they understand well. that in fact, it requires transformative change. -- a see it as the end of the world. it is not the end of the world, but the end of their ideological project. that is unthinkable from marc morano's perspective. rather than thinking about that, they deny the science. when i say the right is right, i think they have a better grasp on the political implications of the science, what it means to how we need to change our economy, and what the role of the public sphere is and the role of collective action is. they understand it better than

value buyers like me which are institutional buyers could put this into a place, although i look at thatearnings and say to myself, i'd use the options to color my risk which is what's going to happen. where it is going to happen, anybody long this stock at a lower price that got into it in one of the rounds while it was private is going to take some portion, maybe their original investment and lock that in which the option wills allow you to do. should it collapse for whatever reason you're protected. if you're an insider and want to get out use the options too because you're tied up for another year. i expect these options to be very well used for that reason. the stock is crazy expensive. i don't care how you measure it. >> one of the things you to think about if looking at alibaba is china and what is it going to do policy wise going forward? of course we have the hong kong protests going on right now with some people part of china who have different views about how they should handle democracy and capitalism going forward. how important is that and watching that to figuring out what
