Back to you. All right, thanks very much,n carol massar. Now, for the latest on the results of twitter, i want to go to San Francisco and brirancn bloomberg west editor at large cory johnson. Nson i do not understand. Explain a little bit about the e results and why would thand e reacting negatively. I think a lot of what the phenomenon is firstquarter report from twitter is reallyll about the ip leto the ipo, right . It was seen in the wake of the failed facebook ipo, the biggest ipo since then, and a lot of excitement. This was not even close, so you had a li ted flow in the ipo, and you had enormous hitting against the stk, a lot of shorting going into this call,o so a lot of what happened today was not just with the stocks performance but analysts dancing around. It will be about what to do with the stock, not what is going on. I can what is going on with the business. The stock is going to make a call, and the stock is so extraordinarily high for such a nascent business, people have to make big decisions. But it is not growing to be ato big thing just yet. What is their big business . Ib are they just sellingin advertising space on line . Just . T . You say just dealing with advertising dollars . Somehow, e srtising money will flow their way . Well, look. Google is all got that. Aol, time warner is all about that. Ere are a lot of companies that have built giant businesses around selling advertising, and twitter is aiming to do that. There was a slowdown in the users growth. This is down a little bit over the previous quarter, 6. 3 , and we have seen, encouraging forr the company, they have been able to charge more money for each user. The company telling us that they are getting 1arfor every 1000 timeline views, and that is what you get when you look at someones page. Ge. That is a lot better than they had on ar ago, but generally speaking, growth continuing a ttle bit slower than the previous q er in all of the important mes. Thanks very much, coryyyy johnson, our bloomhnrg editor at large. My next guest knows about social media and twitter and creating buzz. Ting b dr. Deepak chopra has over onehv million followermill he is a pioneer he is field of mindbody medicine, and his books have been translated into many languages, and many of th, are bestsellers. Also, steve leber helped manage like aerosmith and the rolling stones, and they arees, combining the social media and the old, g ndparents. Com. I just want to start with you, s steve lebe ecauseec grandparents. Com and the social media, at first blush, you could say one is new age, one is old, and what attracted you to this world of grandparents. Com . But i have always followed the boomers. I have sold concert tickets tos important new group that wemost really are following. This boomer generation is the wealthiest that has ever been on the face of the earth. Grandparents is a community. A co i have studied many of the sites, many other companies, but one thing we all have in common as grandparents is we are all about family. We all have grandchildren. We care about our families. I thought i could pull them together into one organization,a the american grandparents basically offer up products, services, and other things to make seniors a really significant, more importantore group of people that nobody is marketing to. Ght now, no one markets to them. Only five percent of the money is spent in the senior market. M the 50plurket. Everybody is marketing 18 to 36, 18 to 49. They stop at 49. Mean there is life after 49. Aarp. They have never had a significant competitor. By building the grandparents community together, we can compete with aarp, which is the largest organization, membership organization, in the country. That is where we are. Dr. Deepak chopra, come on in on this. I thought th the theme wth were fighting againstfiheir parents, so this common theme, what grandparents have in common, how does that translate into everyday life . Steve mentioned something. He said the baby b said are the most powerful, most economically prosperous people on the planet, but there is one thing else. One other thing about baby boomers. Bobo they never accthd the status quo. S our generation that started the feminist movement, d the peace movement, the ecology movement, racial equality, gender equality, so now we are questioning what it means to be old. That is why i have created a prram with them called timeless youth, and the program ou can have the wisdom of ce and the biology of that your biomarkers of yesterdays idea. Low todays 80 is yesterdays 60. Todays 60 is yesterdays 40. We are seeing a new era, i am telling you, in how we getwe older, how we contribute to society, how we relate to owr grandchildren, how we createn, social networks whcierks grandparents are a Coherent Community that can offer and make great tributions to our world. I am feeling younger just listening to you. That is great. I went one rockstar, a group of rock stars. All sorts of other groups that i manage i now have gone fromw have g handling really super rock stars of the greatest pe the on earth. A super rock star. He does t realize its r take any credit for it, but he is ons of the most listened to and talk about people on the earth. Really proud to have him as part of grandpareof grand organization. E harrison. E are connected, in many ways, even ore this. Ore ok, we are going to continue the conversation. Co we have more with steve leber and deepak choand more on the Music Industry and mind. And coming up, a new approach to fighting heart disease. That aims to attthatthe disease om t nside out. This is taking stock on g. Mb this is taking stock on bloomberg. I am pimm fox. Our guests are the minesbody pioneer, dr. Deepak chopra. Cial website grandparents. Com, steve leber is andparentsom. He of ndpahat ll gndparents g playndpa one of the biggeste hemes of the financial recession that we went ugh, 2008, 2009, is that9, i young people went back to live at home. Grandp ts. The generation we are talking about, my generation, the baby boomers. They were of a differentnt mindset. They did not spend money thatndm they had not earned to buy o impress people they did not like. Responsible for resp we calledy the economic crisis. There was a zeitgeist that saidi spe ith in your meith in live within your means. The new generaths new ot do that. They do not know how to do thatt so they coming home, andcomi is a ure to support them,rt but it is also time to say, your program is taking stock, we should be taking stock of our lives, how the quality of our lives is more important thore anything else. You have a generation right now, you have a mindset right now that is totally distracted. What most people do not understand is that multatasking is the one tis tt gets worse with practice, and it destroys your brain. It has the same effect of some of the add ofrugs, becausecaus it is an addiction. You are on twitter. Checking your email. Same time. Eayou are at the in r , you are ing any of them, and that is why through the timeless youth program, we are teaching you how to be mindful, how to enjoy biological markers oogicing, use as d, there is epigenetics, which says your thoughts, your feelings, your personal relationships, the attitude you have towards aging, all of this actually regulates geneti ty. It is gene expression. You can have two twins who are born with identical genes, and look at them 25 years later, an one will have a healthy genome exession, and the other will have an unhealthy genome ession. We are creating a Global Community starting in the United States of wellbeinges odical wellbeing. Teven, i am wondering if you can connect this with your experience in the entertainment and Music Industry. You have collected data working with peo whose job it is toorm and enter. That is not necessarily somethin u can quantify, but it is personal experience. Someone can come to you and say, how do you do this . How do you handle a difficult situation . N . Is that similar is that e that that is exactly what is happening. The grandparent role is becoming the focal part of the family, so it will be, i believe, healthe,h re, for example, c, for now be managed by corporanions. We will go broke. Now, the randparent must take t tion to prevent diabetes. They have to really watch to rr to rrildren. Atch their grandchildren, now can it eliminate or reduce diabetes in this country. It has to come from someone you respect, and that is a grandparent. Would also apply to todays news that cvs carema that cving to phase out the sale of Tobacco Products in its stores, that that is a generational expression of what someone wants to achieve . To a you can do it. That is exactly what deepak is all about. Conscious is changing in the world. It is not ok to hurt. It is not o destroy their health. Health reform is not heaefor reform. It is insurance reform, as weas look at it. True Health Reform will come when we take responsibility individually and collectively to create wellbeing for ourselves. You mentioned aarp. P. Are a very powerful force when it comes to government gislation. Ion. What role would Something Like grandparents. Com play as anactin things . . Whether it be Tobacco Productsto being sold in cvs or other ores or even taking a r evd on the Affordable Care act . Act . We are not lobbyists. We are going to be advising. We are going to create trust. At you asked me before, one of the things we had with all of our groups, if you look at all of my acts, still performingng today, they were not just throw away acts. The same thing with the branng that i created when it was teenage ninjturtles. I did the moscow circus. I did things that lasted and had character. Is is what it is all about. We have the most trusted brand e. Trust was built by aarp. S no doubt about it, they became number one. There was a change. S a people want more. And there needs to be a itor. There needs to be someone who offers seniors for instance, we believe breakage is one bf the biggest problems in esis y, when you goy, wheore and you fill out those forms, to there is breakage in rebates. We will have a Rebate Program on the market. It is called the gray card. We are learning to work in thisi community and build trust. Deepak is alabout trust. Abouabou i just want to ask you, steven, how many . En, ho . En i have seven. Seven ndchildren. Thank you very much. Ber. E and we will have morwewith Deepak Chopra, and our thanks to leber from grdpar. Com. This is taking stock onstc bloomberg. I am pimm fox. Deepak chopra, and also with us, steve leber. A legend in the mulegend ith industry. He began the music section of the william is agency, overseeing the rolling stones, and garfunkel, diana ross, and from there, he started his own agen which handledhand h, michael bolton, ac dc, and, yes, even beatlemania. I built the Music Division of the William Morris agency. I was the youngest stockholder in the company and the youngest executive in the company. Did you start in the mail room . They all thought i was 30 when i worked in there. In there i had my own business in boston, and i came to work for William Morris becausemoad already been in the mail room of my own business. My Management Company was management. When i l in 1971 with the show cal jesus christ superstar, that gave me what i eded. Ededed and you toured all over the world . Yes, i toured all over tour world. Do you remember seeing theern sh seein yes, and then, of course, i saw hair and all of the shows on broadway. How did that change herge perception of what it isf possible to accomplish . If you stick to your vision, and you dont d yo what otherha people are saying, you are independent of criticism andti flattery, you feel superior to no one, and you feel beneath noe you, and theyodenigrate you,ateo and they may flatter you, ay fla the one thing they cannot do is ignore you. For example, we know that the change at the top of microsoft just occurred, and is there a singular quality that you have seen across all of these chnology companies . Mentioned, they have come from other countries, and they were adventurous adin with. People who are immigrants, ally in the profalsions highly educated,highy edu are alre y ahead of the cy ah, e they take risks. Sks. They are interested are adventure. Adad they hav a wanderlust. They have imaginatiy that is taking them across barriers. Is that something that grandparents, specifically, can help children with . Hildre this idea that you can push and that you need great and that yon complish things . The relationship between a gran child is soique. O we all know the problems of parenting are eliminated with really what grandparent show, and they do this well in india and china and japan. Respect. Respect. We lost thatwect, to ato a ng to helprescertai resgain it. More next on taking stock. Akin t this is taki stock on bloomberg. I am pimm fox. Lets go to carol massar.

According to the centers for disease control, 600,0e pntple die from heartdie fr in the United States each yed stahe leading cause of death for both men an men. A Company Called sunshiny heart has developed a device to savesa the lives of thothe lih a certain kind of heart condition. It wraps around a part of the d helps to pump blood. Joining me is joininf executive, dave rosa, and alsoa with us is dr. Deepak choprar. I want to welcome you when wlcoc have dr. Deepak chopra with us. A pleasure. I want to menon, dr. Deepak chopra, that you have training internal medici i andnaci i ani encrinology. How would you explain theex creation of this particular device within the context of the medical commity . Y . So, really, the technology was developed by a cardiac n, and that cardiacnd that surgeon wa sed out of new zealand and thought there had to be a safer way, a atterer wayfr managing latestage heart failure, and what we are talking class throurtou failure. What are the differentt classes . Cl there are four classes as designated by the new york heart association. Classes one through four, and the most serious are one and effort you wal and in the United States, you have about h million in class three, and over 250 thousand patients inpa ur. S we are reallyalking about patients who cannot walk up a flight of stairs, they canstaigo grocery shopping, they are afraid to have sex, and these are people that cannot even sleep on their back at nigheir n because there is so much conges so mucnges backed up in the system. E system. E congestive heart failure. Right. So this would be the result cor cisease, myopathy, many otherther things, hypethin heart diseas here the blo acked up, so all of the blood that is coming to the hearmibacks the nd gets congested in the lungs, so they cannot breathe, essentially, and wset iau ha ane a mechanicat ace, i guess. S. Correct. How does it work . The device, we have a sample over there. The device does basically two things. When we are talking about congesti class three, it class marily in the left side of the heart or left ventricle, and thattricle, large percentagelaf the cases, and what we do is two things. S h one, every te the balloon inflates along the ascending aorta, it presses blood down through the ascending and descending aorta to endirest of the body, and the reason why that is important, what we are doing during one phase of one assistance is we are getting more oxygen to the heart or more energy to the heart to to able to function. The second thing ie we rapidly deflate the balloon. E as the left heart is starting to push blood or trying to push blood out, we deflate the balloon and creaba more or less helps pull blood from the left heart, and what that does is it reduces the amount of work that the left heart has to do to get blood to the rest of the body, and really, what we are talking re are the principles of muscles. It requires the heart muscletho do less work but gives it rk bug ergy to functionergyoner ow, is this available everywhere . What is the status . We have approval for the device in europe, but in the United States,unitedin trial, so right now, we only have eight edtes that have been activated the study, and that will grow en significantly in the first part of the year, and on our website, can clico see if theysee omee qualify. You have to do surgery e to d implant it . Yes. The difference between this and r stage devices r our devices can be put in through a sml incision, so we make a small incision between tcisi seco third rib, and yohird r not have to crack the veeastbone and do a fully invasive procedure, and that reduces the amount of time. H powered it is powerhrough an external battery source, much like many of the pumps are today. The biggest difference you see his technology is it isgygy outside the oodstream. Oodstr so there are no other pumps that function utside theside bloodstr m, and the reason thatat cal is patients do not have to go on blood thinning medications. Like coumadin. Injury inside, possibility of broke, lots of risks with being inside. As far as the medical community cemmed, we were, wer wer talking about this idea of seeing things that other people dont. Are doctors early adopters for Something Like this, or do they say, that is not the way we do it. We are goingwait a long time. I think doctors will adopt it because there is nothing else right now for this kind of conditio this stage. There is nothing else. Either way, i do not know if you are familiar with itfamilithere are studies that show in stage one cardiac failure, yoga and yg breathing techniques improvequei output. Well published studies. So i think people should be aware of that. I just adopted hot yoga. Good. I do not haveardiac output there are ml tech aquestecs ow you tthregulate your heartbeat. We teach them at our center inte california, but they are also very ear symptoms. What role does thhat rolelogo outside the body play . For example, being able to track your heart, monitor it, find out is a problem th it, apps that may be aps that . Cvs says they are not selling ttes, but what about monitoring a chronic situation . There are technologies out there to measure some aspects. P. There are sensors that are placed on the art that tell e system when to inflate and deflate the balloon, but it does not monitor the patientent situation. Atio talking about technology is not about het failure but monitoring heart activities. I am wearinghis watch right now. You will on mon the senon monitors on mheart rate. Heart ariability, which is the dance between the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system, esistance, basal metabolic rate, and will we all be wearing those in five in yes, because bio regulation is the next frontier through technology. There are algorithms with all of these th gs that will even tellwiwiwi you how much you slept, how much time you pt in deep sleep,lele dreams phase, and even though it is not monitoring that, it is, t erings. Thererh otherthther biotechn that helps th monitor what is happening inin your body he frontier, and ss technology can be picked up by an iphone or any handheld device, instantly transmit it trupercomputeruter with instant interpretation, and change your behavior. O do to logical mark blogi that is it. I want to thank you very much, dave rosa,muchef executive s uptodate as uphen it a niates. Iavailable in the united will do. W thank yo uch. Ry all right, we will continue our conversation with dr. Deepak chopra, and we will talk about fiji, autiful place, especially when you are mistaken llionaire. Details, coming up. C ght, have you heart, h the one about the mistaken billionaire who walked into the fiji water bottling plant in fiji . Well, it is really no joke weke had no, really, it hno, red, ana ronicled by an editor and the latest section of erg businessweek, and jeff joins us from washington, d. C. , and also joining me in the studio is dr. Deepak chopra. All right, jeff, lets start off with exactly what happened. Where did you go, and what did you do . I was going through fiji, a r i happen to be a friend of the people who own fiji water, and i never actually believed that ater was from fiji. Rom i imagin ey went to their bathtub and filled up thefilledu bottles and sold them for a large amount of money, but i wanted to see their facility, so i show up, and i am told, before we go to the factory, we are going to a ceremonial well opening. All of theey Charity Projects on fiji. Why you . I mean, why did they think that you are the person to do all ors these ceremonial tesngs . I just wanted to go watch, and i get out of the car, and t bluntly, i am the only white guy around, so the village thought i owned the company, an, the mayor came up and said, are u him . I no, ately, but they were very happy tvery theless, so i participated in what turned out to be a multihour ceremony to celeceree the opening of this well. What is a cava ceremony . It is a root that is very common in the south pacin th it has psychotropic propsyties. It is a narcotic. S ground into water. Concoction. D into this if you took a scoo yof dirt and put it in a bowl of water, that is what it would look like and tastes l e, but it tu le,t that kava hasome delightful properties, including this ability to make you feel extremely relaxed fairly y, so you wonder why the pace of life in the South Pacific is what pa is, and that is parti to kava, so t basically, you have to drink this to participate in the the cere d it tastes horrible, but after a while, you do not care anymore, and that was sort of the theme for the entire day. Deepak chopra, do you know of kava . . Yes, and he is still underl e the influence. [laughter] ff, you have not recovered yet. This idea of mistaken idenof mi the ideaeconceived ideas. Ed ide. T people can assume certain things about others, where it is a product or company or an individual. It changes your behavior. You go to cocktail party, andty, somebody tells you a Nobel Laureate is over there, or o or there is Deepak Chopra over there e corner. You are not going to perceive me person in the same way. Ur perception at every level is altered, they thouedt that he was resnik. And that changed his perception. They thought you were a billionaire, jeff. I would love to be. I feel bad because you are not, buthey are a lovely people, and i tried to dissuade them from that idea, and tey asked me to give a speech about the importance of water anyway, so i felt that i hafe. I felt that, i am just ast a journalist, i just want to take notes, but therenotes,is expectation of the 200 people in the village who want you to play a role, so even though i am i am under the influence ofthfor me, this fairly thul narcotic, i try to play the role while i was there. You seemed to have done an essive job. Our bloomberg correspondent joining us from washington, and washington, d. C. Coming up, more from Deepak Chopra. Caret eyes. We will tell you a will te it has some good and some not so good surprises. Ample, puerto rico. Ng o surprises going on there. Details, coming up. This is taking stock on bloomberg. I am pimm fox. Mayb ing downgraded is not t thing in the world, on spalling after Standard Poors lowered general Obligation Bonds one step to bb , and that is the ghest speculative grade, for puer joining us now is the cous nder and portfolio manager, and also with me is the author and physician Deepak Chopra. Were going to make this. Ngo ma what is the situation in puerto . Ico they have been facing some fundamental headwinds ental hen time. Ti i have obviously been exacerbated over the last few months because casnths running short, and this is putting someg heat to the feet of the the problem, they have not economy in order to support th rrowing that rr have done over the course of cou many years. Ny absolutely. They also have pension issues. On top of that, they have that,h unemployment, as well, andell, a flights to the mainland. Eepak chopra, it sounds like the ill have to be some to be mental changes imea place likemi puerto rico. One solution would be to empower the local economy. Right now, the economy is dependent on the United Statesni in many ways. Created the mind set. Se ated the economy. Ed the tax benefits. Tax t yes, the triple taxfree bonds. We should be rescuing them, but longterm, that is not the solution. M, it is to out of the mindset of a derivative economy and actually create an economy that makes a difference in terms f products anduc services. You should know this at bloomberg, but of the 2. 3 trillion dollars in the World Markets circulating,etvecircay, only 2 goes to providing meaningful oods and services. Ce the rest is money making, makine money off of money, which i guess is r business. The interesting thing, and discussing this with deepak , you are actually long. Allyal you actually believe they are going to work somethintoout. K so first of all, there has been a turnover in the governmentthe over the past months. The Current Administration iad very much focused, sincerely, and i have dealt witi havet of distressed corporations in the past, an ve looked a lot of liars in the eye, and i think they are trying to turn this around from a fundamental perspective. I also believe they think they ha a moral obligation to notn default on the debt. We will have to wa will see, but in terms of their earnestr t effort, it is fully there, is there are things that they can do. They have a very overloaded n system that they can go c ahead and reach reductions on. Du they can go ahead and sello ff some of the assets that are government owned, and they can go ahead and raise tax revenue and do ngs to improve ation. Most importantly, it is a long story. It is not like a corporation. It does not get settled overnight. Ernigh this is a problem that was created over years and years of debt issuance. I am glad you said it will not be settled overnight, because, deepak, i am wondering if you can talk about if youd do things in small steps and small bites, you can accompl yoc anything ything hing i know if i can tell a t, you have to liveiv this way because 20 years later you will avoid a heart attack h cancer, that is not going togoio motivate them,ut if i tellf i them t rs from now, you are feel really good. If you eat to that hamburger org triple hamburger or ch er, how are you going to feel ne hour . L are you going to enjoy yourou productive . R are you going to be along those linesloit is unfortunat unfortunat wngrade me. Me. It is going to hold the government feet tovern fire even harder, and it may make them do things faster in haste and not do the right things her the ert that goes back to your point earlie hich iearlie torl stay focused and not feel thatnd eou are above or below anyone bl else and staying focused on the fundamentals. That is why you arat itting longterm, right . When are we going to see the next step . We got the downgrade it is a w process. I think there are going to be another few headlines that will come out with respect to the other agen otngrading. Selecting to do a debt raise. They have ben talks for atalk tawhile. Hopefully, it will go off well. The incremental theps with a quickly. T large do not come david, dr. Deep david, a, thank you
