and yet because of the pervasiveness of these images of attract defense and the role they play in our culture is no accident the fastest growing specialty is cosmetic surgery. it's shocking women to form their feet to fit into what we call killer shoes. so much of that surgery seems like it's on a necessary from a societal point of view ite no the basic health eds of so many that this suddenly as the growth area and medicine are to make think twice about perhaps our preoccupation that it's gotten out of hand. >> host: deborah rhode is professor of law at hanford. director of the legal profession here and the program in law and social entrepreneurship. she is former chair of the american bar association's commission on women in the profession. she also clerked for supreme court justice thurgood marshall. she's written several books. at stanford he talk about your colleague, condoleezza rice and "the beauty bias" as well. when you write about her? >> guest: there's a barbie doll that looks like condoleezza rice, which is one of the markers of some progress on this issue. >> host: house

the bad behavior is so pervasive. we need to look at fundamental change in the military justice system itself. there's something like 16 bills pending right now in congress. some of them would change the system. i think they are all worthy of consideration, and there's a panel that's been appointed by the secretary and the congress to look at all this and they have to be sensitive to the political calendar, but i think that this panel should look at all the options. >> jeh johnson, former general counsel at the pentagon, i think you just made a lot of news here tonight. thank you for being here and willing to do it on this show. nice to see you. >> thanks, rachel. >>> taking the fifth today in broke and entertaining style. that's next.

widespad famine and malnutrition would be all-pervasive on industry... the port concluded at if mineralsnd metals weonsumed global supplies would be exhaustein a few decades. they were called the club of rome because they met there. the writers of the limits of growth came from m.i. jay forrester, a group consultant, summarized their conclusions. the forces are like an onion. peel off one layer, thanother limit. uthat make it impossible a combination of forces fothe high growth rate ofndustrialization and e highrowt of population to continue thugh the ne century. population jay forrester recounts their dire prediction on forces which willalt those forces can be social perception popution growth. that smaller familiesare ney to long-term gh quality of life. or it wi come about byhe sheer pressures of starvation or the social instabilities that will precipitate an amic war. i thought there wasa large. while a professor at yale, henry wallicbegan to confront the doomsayers some years ago, i guess 10 years ago i think they'veections gradually come downople.

that thought it was just a pervasive attitude that the institution has gotten so large. i guess in saying that, and i am not talking about just the irs, but government in general. anybody in any agency that would use for their own personal agenda or a political agenda against a class of people or an individual, should not be -- they should be losing their jobs, losing the benefits they accrue, and may be facing jail time. >> i have tried to stake in the clearest terms of possibly can tell unacceptable is for this behavior to have happened. i have spent most of my career in public service. i hold myself and everyone i work with to a very high standard. there's no place for bias in the implementation of our tax laws or our other laws. we have to be implemented fairly and equally. i would be reluctant to go beyond the facts in front of us now and assume any broader issue. i think it is a bad enough set of facts that we are looking at that we need to understand them, take the actions to fix them. look at the irs and make sure that if there are problems, we fix them. i would

>> well, you know what, i think there's clearly, neil, a culture of intimidation that is pervasive in many areas of the government today, and i -- we blew the whistle on this a couple of months ago when the environmental protection agency took 80,000 records and gave those out, that information, to liberal environmental groups. there were -- it was names, addresses, phone number, geographic coordinates of their farms and ranches. there were 500 farms and ranch families in south dakota that were impacted by that. it seems what this administration seems intent on doing is bullying, intimidating, threatening the people that oppose them and helping their friends. in some cases giving information to their friends that can help them attack their enemies. so it really is chicago style politics at its worst and it seems to be very pervasive in the administration. this, of course, irs is one example of that. >> focusing on the irs one last time. do you think, senator, that it was wise for the chief counsel of the white house not to convey to the president that the inspector general had discove

and what is so pervasive is that my pastor then becomes my my vicarious wealth.stor is very wealthy, then one day if i keep giving him my financial seeds, then i'll get there. >> and can you put this in a little context? it seems to me we've always had gospels of prosperity. >> it wasn't mainstream. it was an aberration. now these jokers look like they're dr. king. >> the interesting thing we can go back to max vapors the protestant ethic. there is a sense in which vapors account of a certain kind of pure tannism, there is a direct relationship between the blow of god's grace and material wealth and gain. >> right. >> so it's deeply engrained in the very american fabric of the religious imagination. that's the first thing we need to say. about this question around sexuality, though, brother mark, there's a sense in which we need to be very careful not to frame the discussion of sexual desire by aberration. >> right. >> and it seems every time we talk about sexuality within the church it's a scandal that precipitates the conversation. and when we do that, i think

but this has been a pretty pervasive scene for months previously and probably going forward. stop hearing about these issues. >> kate, is there an opportunity for the right here to overplay their hand, especially when it comes to issues of big policy? and i'm talking about immigration, also the environment. i know keystone is still very hot in washington, d.c. right now. >> you know, i think the issue is that there are a lot of other issues that the american public really wants to see dealt with. immigration being one of them. environmental issues being another one. and that these scandals sort of serve to distract from that. i think they risk overplaying their hand. but what we see is they are repeating those key words about skabls and even you saw boehner there saying we should perhaps people should be in jail regarding the irs scandal when perhaps the reports didn't refers to justice. the idea that there's criminal activity here is pretty farfetched. all they need to do is create the impression that there's something bigger going on here than there really is and i think it

it's pervasive. so rightly or wrongly the government has looked at s.a.c. as the firm that most people -- there have been rumors and whispers about forever and said this is the way that we can get people to realize they can't do this anymore. that we're going to find a way to go after this. >> rose: basically saying nobody is above the law, see what we did. >> exactly. per year conversation with the u.s. attorney. >> so then there's this: do you believe he did it or not? that he was guilty of insider trading. >> i believe at one point in time he was. this was a shop that pushed the envelope in every way possible. is he guilty within the statute of limitations? has he specifically -- >> rose: right. >> i think the guy has surrounded himself with such an army of high-priced legal talent it's very analogous to the c.e.o.s of big banks who after the financial crisis were impossible to prosecute because they'd built up such an army of lawyers and accountants around them who signed off on things and i think the same might be true here. that's why i'm not sure thi

if it's that pervasive. >> clearly, i mean, the u.s. has had a pretty aggressive enforcement regime under the fcpa. so i think you see that. the bribery act out of london is clearly topical with british companies that are operating in rapid growth markets. and i suspect you'll continue to see enforcement in these areas going forward. >> so how do you monitor this and find out what's going on? i mean, you did a survey and you got this result. how come we're not seeing this in the actual balance sheets? >> well, maria, if i understand the question, i mean, clearly, corporates are focusing on these environments. the issue of bribery, fraud, and corruption is not a new one. and i think for me, this is all about the size -- most large corporates that are investing in high-risk markets are totally aware of what the risks are. it's really how they deal with them. i think, clearly, economic pressure in mature markets are forcing corporates to go into high-risk markets to find growth. and some of the statistics that you're seeing from here is al

that is pervasive in our system and people working in the trenches is hard to overcome that complacency and their client issen entitled to that. that doesn't provide the information that they need to challenge the prosecution. where we know many of our experts on arson and the fire wasn't arson. when you have evidence that isn't disclosed you have experts that are challenged because there are no resources and you have a system that has burden the public with too many cases and it's impossible for them not to be complacent. we have to remember to be vigilant and challenge a system that doesn't give a person representation are entitled to. >> i wanted to ask you what is it about the culture of prosecution or prosecutors that allows wrongful convictions. i know there have been stories of prosecutors who have been responsible for exonerating individuals who they believe are wrongfully convicted but that's the exception, not the rule. i know in a documentary central park 5 and after 5 young men were imprisoned and later exxon rated them. what do you think has to change in terms of the actual

community issued a report to congress, stating that cyber-based economic espionage is increasingly pervasive, and their report confirms that several nations are using cyber capabilities to collect sensitive american technology as well as economic secrets. while state-sponsored cyber espionage is a growing problem, it is but one aspect of the threat. the number and sophistication of computer intrusions have increased dramatically in recent years. american companies are using billions of dollars -- losing billions of dollars worth of intellectual property, research and development, as well as trade secrets. outside attackers of borrow and to company networks, remain undiscovered for months or even years. it is much like having termites in your house. often by the time you discover them, the damage is done. now, activist groups are pioneering their own forms of digital anarchy. in the bay area, you witnessed their work firsthand when individuals have the bark website and released personal data of customers -- and individuals -- when individuals hacked the bart website. the anonymity of the inte

groups to really paint a picture for san francisco and its leadership about how important and how pervasive family violence is in san francisco and also how much progress we made, so we just finished our 2011 comprehensive report so we would like to share some of that with you this evening. >> i think i'm going first on child abuse. you're going to see some statistics in front of you that really tell you the story. over 6,000 reports come into the abuse hot line, every 18,000 calls into the tak line and living with kids, 411 kids and line that runs 24/7 and in operation for the last 36 years. for any parent or caregiver in distress if they're isolated can reach out for help. excuse me for my voice and i am sick and i get it when i walk into the building. thank you so much. i'm going to talk briefly about three of the recommendations that we made two years ago in the report and we made the recommendations around child abuse and we learned a lot about domestic violence and we wanted child abuse to have the same and when we asked for data the first year of the report everything that came to us

martha: new evidence this morning that shows the irs targeting of conservative groups is more pervasive and widespread than the obama administration has claimed. 25 of these groups filed a lawsuit against the irs and attorneys representing them say the abuse of power went a lot higher up than the white house first claimed. first, the white house said this was a few rogue officials. just two people in the cincinnati office, it was regrettable. now we are getting an indication it's happening in far more places across the country. this one is in el monte, california. there were other letters sent from across the country. the white house claimed this last week the targeting ended last year. really? here is jay carney on that. >> the misconduct stopped in may of 2012. so despite all the media interest in our april 2013 awareness, it's important to remember the misconduct stopped almost a year earlier. martha: look at the date on this letter. it shows one group was targeted and some might say harassed with a ploft questions about their status after they were left hang for a long time. this is

slide would come up, the problem of bullying is changing, morphing, mutating, younger, meaner, more pervasive as kids have more tools. i want to be clear that the approach that our nation has taken to date is out of the ashes of columbine. we refer to it as an outside approach. what most schools did back then was try to secure a school from ingress, guns coming in and sro's and cameras can stop the guns but they can't stop the kids who bring in other weapons, weapons of bias, weapons of grudges from the neighborhood, values from home. we need to have a different approach. the approach we are talking about is a relational approach. it's an inside out approach, an approach really based on empowering young people not to be consumers but to be contributors in their own schools, not to be the problems but to be the solutions because clearly we've learned and know that we cannot legislate compassion and we cannot punish our children into being kind. we've tried. we've spent billions of dollars with policies that are punitive, not restoretive, policies that punish but don't give young people the opp

they're rational is completely different from the normal investing mentality which of course is pervasive in the capital markets now there is a call. and this was shown very very clearly when they bashed the price of gold i'm sober or all that happened is that the people who are worried about systemic risk bearing in mind systemic risk has escalated considerably over the last two or three years they came out of the woodwork and added to their positions there is a second thing which the analysts miss the analysts all talk in terms of annual supply mine supply two thousand seven hundred times graph another twelve hundred tonnes whatever the figure is actually the way you should look at it is this is one hundred and sixty thousand tom market and so when some of the holders of that one hundred sixty thousand tons decide that the prices fall into a point where they want to add to their position the effect is far larger than analysts in the city's capital markets generally expect right and principal amongst this misperception would be the elsa's of let's cut business insider in new york that sa
