at multibillion dollar projects here we're looking at stadiums we're looking at freeways we're looking at all kinds of things because an enormous amount of money and take a long time to build is the state doing the right thing when it's trying to attract foreign investors i think it is i mean i think the government has been taking certain steps to encourage foreign investment in a number of from a number of angles for example there's political support financial support and there's a little support so from the political support we see. the government has in its recent budget it's committed for the development of infrastructure in certain sectors for example the government has stated that the developer of development of transport facilities. as a priority is the development of health care and education infrastructure and also infrastructure in relation to technology so for example everybody's heard about the development of skolkovo which is going to be the russian or equivalent of silicon valley. in addition to that there is there's the state probably transition project which is going to

how is it looking? >> we've been tracking it for quite some time it was a super typhoon a couple days ago, now it's a category 2 storm and lashing okinawa over the last couple of hours. this is a very slow-moving storm, west-northwest at 7 kilometers per hour. that's a problem, because of its position. the center of the storm is just to the south and west of okinawa island. so those inner rain bands here containing those dangerous winds have been lashing okinawa for the last several hours. look at the scene on thursday as the system made a close pass. hurricane-force wind gusts over the last 12 hours here. this is a sustained, prolonged event here. not only are we dealing with strong winds but also torrential rains. classic trees there flying in the wind. that will continue over the next several hours as this thing continues to move off. look behind me at the rain tallies, upwards of 200 millimeters of water at the airport here. we've been gusting upwards of 130 kilometer per hour winds across oak nokin

it looks like a radar gun. it uses microwave technology to detect and track a bicyclist as he or she approaches an intersection. it can tell the difference between the larger signature of an automobile and the smaller profile of a person on a bike. it can trigger a green light or keep it on longer so the bicyclist can get out of the intersection. it cuts down on red light running, something that sometimes bicyclists might be tempted to do. and also puts them in a situation where they don't have to cross traffic to push the crosswalk button to activate the red light. the city started testing this back in january. the trial went so well that transportation engineers decided to install them at six other intersections throughout city. if that second phase goes well, the idea would be to maybe make a standardish you at all 100-plus intersections or most of them. by the way, it runs about 4,000 to $5,000. you were mentioning other cities were keeping their eye on this. this is the case. there are about 20 cities thro

that's a look at the national forecast. here's a look at the weather outside your window. sunshine and warm temperatures is the story out there. as i mentioned, a few storms are possible in tucson, arizona, but that will be the exception. much of the country including the west will be dry today. i think friday will be one of the warmest days in some of the areas, so we'll talk about that. >> thank you so much. >>> well, tech stumbles, and what's the stitch with ambercrombie & fitch. >>> plus, he could earn an award for grossest performance. >>> coming up, ponzi schemes, nightclubs, and prostitutes. that's college football for you. you're watching "early today." >>> good morning. welcome back to "early today." i'm lynn berry, and here are your top headlines this morning. despite syrian president bashar al-assad claiming that military and police operations against protestors have ended, activists report more bloodshed overnight. since march over 1,800 civilians have been killed in syria's uprising according to witnesses. >>> in libya rebels are closing in on tripoli from the

at all the developments except stories you look at korea you look at taiwan you look at china and japan they've all used a trading system to get where they want but they certainly are not by any means you know free market countries in any sense of the word and i think that's the important lesson is that the advice the i.m.f. was giving and the economic policies that i.m.f. economists talk learned of themselves at the university of chicago and other orthodox economic schools and then putting into that into economic policy advice to developing countries are the wrong kind of policies and advice for most countries in the world and that you need to have very very very differential situations for each country and they're not going to and as we all now know economic theory as described by new liberal or the docs economic schools is just floored it doesn't work with the way our real world economic systems work markets don't but on a perfectly. that kind of economic theory will note again is that i believe in a higher call milton friedman you might know but no one is pursuing that chicago unive

i have looked at the apartments from around the country. i have looked at many consent degrees. i have been involved in one in oakland for almost eight years. i have seen all the policies here in san francisco. i have seen policies in most departments. it is more about how you impose those policies, how do you know what the person is supposed to do. it is a comment i have seen from judges many times. it is a question of trust, but verify. there are enough mechanisms in place to audit internally -- not an internal audit department itself, but a way to look to see whether or not the integrity in the process that people are involved in. you can look on the spot check basis to determine whether drugs in the department are supposed to be there. you can look to find out whether or not people are being truthful when they say the police have taken the money. i have seen that. and you can develop policies to look to say. look, does this particular officer have a history of arresting people and there is no underlying offense? or does the person have a history with drug cases were small am
