ben allen reaches transition in third, mere seconds behind stoltz. allen is smaller and lighter than stoltz, which could be an advantage on this run course. ben allen won four xterra world tour events this year. but a win here in utah would be the biggest victory in his young career. at the end of the sardine peak downhill, women's leader lesley paterson winds through this twisty meadow section, but she has company, four-time defending champion, melanie mcquaid is only seconds behind in second, while third place rider suzie snyder has them both in her sights. the men's defending champ, nico lebrun, leaves transition in fourth. the only way to describe the early part of this run course is simply brutal. middaugh: that first three-quarters of a mile right off the bike is pretty much straight uphill, it's the steepest part of the course, and for me it's... my heart's up in my throat, and it's... you've just got to get through that pain and then it gets better from there. narrator: middaugh has survived the early climb unscathed. and with the spectacular

a world of difference between ben bernanke and that of allen greenspan. that is disclosure. he never would have told us what he was planning to do several months from now. people exiting bonds now, people exiting stocks at the same time, people choose one of those asset classes over the other. >> you have been talking about bond prices, which can fall. they are moving out of long-term bonds. they are good generally for the stock market. this is a wonderful buying opportunity. stocks are not overpriced. it is what is overdone. people should recognize that stocks remain. gerri: looking for some bargains out there. home care workers are now being seen as a huge untapped resource. they are aggressively trying to organize it. unions and many democratic lawmakers say that workers receiving public funds like many of the home care aides are state employees. >> over 75% of the people surveyed of these home health care aides have taken care of family and friends. gerri: i am confused here. it is my sense of this story that all of these union organizations -- that is the best way of ge

allen. president obama talked about whether or not the federal reserve chairman would stay past january when his term is up. listen to this. >> i think ben bernanke has done an outstanding job, he is a little bit like bob muller, the head of the fbi, he has stayed longer than he wanted or he was supposed to. >> some people think president obama just fired bernanke. >> yeah, i would not -- i have heard that. he did not fire bernanke. bernanke has a term that ends in january and first of all, president can't fire him. but i think what i read is that president obama sort of let out of the bag, probably a discussion that he and bernanke had. but i suppose he told the president, something that is not a surprise, which is he would like to go at the end of his second term. i mean, that has been the working aassumption of everyone for a long time. >> do you think that bernanke leaving has a big impact on the markets, adam? >> it could, the consensus view is that janet yellen could be more focused on rates, and the -- it could get a pause later in the fall, if we find out coming in that they will be more focused on controlling rates. what do you

i mean, ben, what sort of gag order or what sort of obligation does an employee, when they leave an agency like a booz allenke a contractor, what obligation they have to keep that information under wraps? >> sure. well, let's keep in mind that upon receiving a security clearance, you are bond by law to the terms of what that means in terms of dealing with classified and sensitive information. in perpetuity. this isn't something that expires when you leave a particular job. let's keep in mind, i had mentioned the figure of roughly 1.1 million contractors that have security clearance from confidential to top secret. they are an integral part of the intelligence community, of the i.c., an integral part of keeping our nation secure and safe. we're not seeking, i hope in the discussion of all of this, to demean the work they are doing. >> sure. >> as my fellow guest pointed out, this is somebody who clearly made a decision to violate that trust. instead of pursuing the many channels that do exist, the avenues that exist to voice concerns that exist for folks in any agency with security clearances or not. he chos

ben speaks. game seven, miami heat beat the spurs, 103-100, and heat fans headed for the doors when the team was down five with 28 seconds left. ray alleninter to force the game in over time, the teams face off for deciding game seven, thursday night, miami. wait for it, the judge, oh, oh, here we go. ♪ >> make a note of this all next week, another hour of varney and company, going 9:15, ignore that graphic, 9:15 to noon next week only. david asman will be with us in the eleven o'clock hour, and david has more on the irs scandal, this time, all about liberal nonprofit groups that were, indeed, fast tracked for tax exempt status. david, quick tease. >> these are organizations that did not deserve it because thigh just wanted politicians legislated so they were fast tracked to get nonprofit stay taws not deserved. i have details. i have the irs forms. >> thank you, david. the nsa surveillance program prevented a bombing at the new york stock exchange and 45 other possible attacks around the country, says the fbi. does that convince the judge to change position on snooping? here's the judge. >> you got to be kidding. you believe the govern
