dr. morales on tv. despite her age, effie was deemed a good candidate for tms, and began her first series of 5-day-a-week treatments in the spring of 2011. - the tms stimulator allow us to deliver huge amounts of electricity to the coil using magnetic fields that cross the skull, go through the brain, and then induce an electrical stimulation, activating tissue. if it is depression, we target the left prefrontal cortex. - that's the part of the brain that controls mood. 7 months after she began tms treatments, effie was in the maintenance phase, about two sessions a month. - so this is going to be 37 minutes treatment. any question before we start? - no. - are you comfortable? - i'm very comfortable right now. - it's starting now. - ok. a woodpecker. [machine clicking] - yes, sounds like a woodpecker. she has a very fascinating story. at some point, she was not interested in life anymore. after successful treatment with tms, there was a significant change. effie was ready to travel. i went to greece. we

dr. king's important moral rhetoric, examine the character, look at the person, and respect every personyour voice. because i know you say, you know, on the flip side, we have to take -- i'm quoting you. take an honest look at how rust about all of us have racialized perceptions of people of color. what do you mean by that? >> you know, it would be easy to make this case and this issue of race all about george zimmerman. but what the research tells us, sadly, is that the vast majority of us in this country have been socialized to have negative perceptions, stereotypical perceptions of people of color, especially black folks, especially black men. we've got to deal with that. there was a study a few years back, for instance, which took white subjects. hooked us up to brain scan imaging machines and then flashed images on a computer screen so quickly, subliminally, like 30 millisecond, too fast for the conscious mind to react. they were gauging the actual brain reaction to the image. most of the images were neutral. like a tree. a blade of grass. a puppy dog. when they showed a black male

theust talked about antichoice legislation that moral mondays has taken on. reverend dr. m barber, talk about the other issues that are causing, well, this point, over 700 people to get arrested. >> thank you so much and thank you to your audience. moral mondays is not a spontaneous speech. it has grown out of eight years , groups like planned parenthood and others have been involved all along. we know in the south what changes the dynamic is fusion politics. saying sincebeen january, this legislature, is to cut 500,000 people from medicaid , disabled children, is immoral, extreme, and bad policies to 170,000 people unemployment who lost their jobs with no fault of their -- through no fault of their own. poor but i'm doing -- by undoing their earned income. giving wealthy families tax cut is extreme and immoral. to attack women's rights, voting rights, to undermine public education. all of these are part of what is extreme -- i don't even call them republican or democrat, but extreme legislators. we are forcing a new conversation in the public arena. it is not republican o

dr. levy) well in fact as cardiovascular and cancer moralities have improved, copd has doubled in the past i forget if it's three, four, five years. but the death rate associated with copd has been going the wrong direction. (peter) how does cigarette smoking cause copd? (dr. fisher) well there have been a whole host of studies that have shown a relationship between smoking and copd, cardiovascular disease, lung cancer, etc. the list grows almost every month. and those studies are controlled studies, epidemiological studies that have various ways of piecing together the puzzle. so i don't think too many people have too much question at this point that copd is largely caused by smoking. (peter) we have to pause just for a moment here and sum up what we've covered, which is a lot. but i think we can boil it down to this. copd is chronic obstruction of airflow through the airways. it is common but it's often incompletely diagnosed or even misdiagnosed. and by misdiagnosed people are going to lose time. lose time when they might otherwise have had therapy that might have helped them. is that f

dr. king traded access to lyndon johnson's white house for the moral clarity there needed to be antipoverty and job legislation in the united states. dr. king died abdicating for 1,000 black men who are sanitation workers in tennessee marx memphis, and the reason he is assassinated abuse dr. king is bringing together whites, blacks, latinos, to come -- native americans to come to washington where the poor people's camp is for the entire summer and is trying to bend the nation's will into effective legislation for poor people. so peek talk about dr. king as a nonviolent activist, and he was, but dr. king is a revolutionary. he is a 20th century american revolutionary, and he is using nonviolence as a tactic to bend the nation's will and to save what he calls the soul of america. so we can't have a black president that, because he is black we are unwilling to say, look, this is the black agenda we need. these one, two, three things, and that you have to push for this, both rhetorically and publicly policy-wise, and this brother gave a great speech yesterday but then he told us that him, as pr

. >> the moral component, no question is missing on the republican side. dr.ar, karl rove has an ad claiming that obama care will create a bunch of paperwork. you, as a doctor, is this true? wi will this meyer the whole met medical community and make it worse. >> well, they want to make it look like obama doesn't care. but he does care and they will take it and like it. right now a lot of people have gotten a lot cheaper healthcare in the last couple of days and think about this, the woman who actually now can afford healthcare, can now actually have healthcare and not be denied because she was a victim of domestic violence. that is what obama care means. we can't go back and forth and make people think they are scared it have obama care. this is not protecting poor people or rich people. this is protecting people out there that work everyday, like you out there listening. so you node it make shower that you protect your middle class cop september of what reality is and not just go on and on and think obama care is scary. it will save your life. >> it is. and

dr. king would be equally aghast to see how far our nation has devolved from god centered moral law to a nation in which everyone did what was right in his own eyes. will there come a day in which the people of this country will again have to determine they must defy the laws, the laws of man, because the men and women who made the laws defied the laws of god? our founders would understand that, and so would dr. martin luther king jr. a couple of weeks ago at my opening monologue in the show and at a speech at the southern baptist convention in houston, i suggested that churches might come to the place that they'll want to maybe even abandon their tax-exempt status just to protect religious freedom. not everyone agrees with me, not even my good friend jim garlo of the skyline church in san diego, who joins me now. jim, it's so good to talk to you and have you on the showed today. >> thank you, governor. >> jim, i know that my point was a little bit provocative on purpose, but the point is we are rapidly getting to the place where the government is wanting to regulate to a point where chu

dr. william barber, president of the north carolina chapter of the naacp and one of the main organizers of the moralprotests where we see many people out there behind you. thanks for joining us. >> thank you, ari. i'm glad to be with you and your audience tonight. >> excellent. i want to ask you right out of the gate what are you trying to achieve with moral mondays? what is your message not only within north carolina but to the rest of the country that may be learning about these protests? >> well, moral monday is a brand new fusion movement. it is the third reconstruction being birthed right in front of our faces. it's black and white and brown and labor and people of faith and gay and straight coming together around an agenda that believes that we ought to have -- deal with poverty, we ought to have education equality, health care for all, deal with disparities in the criminal justice system and protect voting rights. it's going straight at the old white southern strategy that divides us by race. it's cutting across the limited moral critique of the christian evangelicals that limits moral issues

dr. j is shaking his head. >> i think we all are. >> had some examples and i know all of you watching probably feel the same way. i mean, it's yet another argument, money versus morality is right versus who is making what to provide the data to whom, and who pays the ultimate price? >> you and you. >> exactly. all of you. >> that's exactly right, again, kudos to eamon for ferreting this out, but when you've got an announced release time for data, not against somebody doing data and mining through it to figure out, you know, that there's a little bit of this or a little bit of that, bullish or bearish, but if you say that your data comes out at 10:00 when in fact it comes out 90 minutes earlier or nine milliseconds earlier than that, you've lost me in terms of your morality. it's not right. it's not fair. >> all right. today on big data download who is chowing done on all the fast food? in terms of spending, oklahoma, arkansas and kansas see the most amount of money being spent on the likes of mcdonald's and others. who is on the bottom of that last? find out bigdata.cnbc.com. just moments away from president obama's address on the economy. we're going to bring that to
