a. mirage. and so one could see in this in for a good read cameron the amount of old organic carbon coming off these storage tanks . every well is drilled into a strait and it has organic chemicals. oil is a mixture of these very heavy organics but it's a range from these kind of greasy very heavy oily stuff to stuff which is quite good all of those materials evaporate very quickly all of those are potentially toxic but we don't know to what extent. many of them are dangerous ethylene for instance is converted to humans to ethylene oxide and ethylene outside is a carcinogen. besides the drilling in their immediate neighborhood christene stever directly down window what was becoming a major drilling field exposing them to even higher levels of airborne toxins. another source of possible exposure was a waste water treatment facility located across the river from their home. in one nine hundred ninety seven as chris's symptoms were getting worse a water well near them of baldy's was blown out and co

when it's really hot outside and you can see that blurring off the ground that kind of looks like a miragek at the picture here. well, that's actually the reflection of the sky, and it looks like pools of water, like a desert mirage, right? is. megyn: i see it. >> reporter: well, the cloaking device uses the same idea. they use carbon nano tubes which are hair-like tubes, and they get really, really hot. and they create this layer of heat, and that heat bends the light away from the surface much like a mirage, and it tricks your eyes into thinking the object has disappeared. it's still there, it just disappeared, right? in fact, it's just that mirage effect. it's just blurring it. but the truth is they can use these nanotubes in a lot of different things because once they get them on a bigger scale, you could actually cloak things like planes, right? and rockets, resource husband coming home from playing poker with the boys at night, you know, they could cloak all kinds of fun thgs. [laughter] but really this is fantastic technology, and it's the first time i've ever seen something like th

. >> this is probably the turning point, but it could easily be a mirage. >> reporter: darren gersh, "nightly business report," washington. >> tom: to jim awad, managing director add zephyr management. he joins us from the nasdaq. jim, welcome back to n.b.r. nice to see you again. >> thank you. >> tom: we have strong, u.s. economic growth and finally it seems like a european agreement to deal with greece. is that all clear for investors to go in and buy? >> no, in the very short term it is because you've lifted the curtain on the two main worries, a., groos would cause an implosion in europe this week, and, b., that the u.s. was going into a double-dip recession. corporate earning reportes, g.n.p. growth have alleviated fears of the latter, and the agreement today alleviated fears, for now, of the former. this is all still a work in progress. we will immediately cycle into the employment report next week and then the super committee report, the end of november, and then, of course, they do have to implement and put meat around the agreement in europe today. so this is a relief rally,

wall street well funded by the health insurance industry his policies reflect that when you have a mirage election we have united states where voters only get to choose from corporate approved candidates funded by the corporations allowed on the corporate t.v. stations a lot of the corporate sponsored debates and everybody else is kept out you know with a collection and that's why you have less than half americans resident of o. and of those races less than half of those vote so you people want to legislate about fifteen percent of the vote if they have a landslide that's not a legitimate government i think more people realize we need to take over this government the people good rueben the elites we have in our front page of occupy washington d.c. dot org we want to front page seven issues where the super majority of americans support specific policies and all those policies the government's going the opposite direction if those pauses reported place this country be much better shape the people can rule better than the elites and that's what these people feel that's they know that's going

do for the u.s., but when you dig a little deeper into the -- what he did in texas, it's more of a miragen a miracle. let me show you this graph of what he did. lou can help interpret it for us. job creation until perry lost 300,000 jobs from 2009 to 2011. so that's a miracle? maybe he's talking about drilling, because he really doesn't know how to create jobs, mr. steele. >> well, i think that's one side of the numbers. the other side of the numbers is as a lot of folks will tell you, texas has led the way in creating jobs. certainly those numbers come from the first part of the recession where everyone suffered a significant number of jobs loss, even at the beginning of the obama administration. now they like to brag about creating 2 million jobs. if you put it together, you come up with a slightly different number. this is part of a series of plans he's going to be putting together to create jobs. this is the energy side of the equation. then there will be a manufacturing side of the equation. there are other aspects of our economy that will be creating jobs as well. next week in south

>> what. >> hope and change. >> no. >> which was nothing but a mirage. same people on the left. >> that's not right. >> what do you mean it's not true? he was a state senator. this was like selling soda to americans. hope and change. hope and change. >> stop it. no. >> it's the same exact thing. >> no it's not. >> americans bought it hook, line, and sinker. they could have gotten hillary clinton, somebody that knew how to run washington, or go with the guy who had the catchy phrase. guess what they did? they went with the guy with the catchy phrase. >> they don't vote for issues. they vote for an overall persona. >> and anybody on the left that is not willing to admit that you fell for it hook, line, and sinker back in '08, a soda campaign for hope and change, are just like the people on the right that are still trying to tell themselves that 999 means anything more than 27. >> you know what this says, herman cain? 999? the story is yet to be written. >> hope and change. >> there will be an independent candidate that will surface. it's not vote. i don't

reporter: alex, amid all of this frenzy, a lot of people are saying, this whole christie thing is a miragery when he suddenly got in the race over the summer, he shot to the top of the polls. he had some views that didn't jibe with what a lot of conservatives are thinking, particularly on the issue of immigration. christie himself has views on immigration that he's talked about over the course of his term as governor of new jersey. over the course of the last two years, that are also not part of the orthodoxy of conservatives within the republican party. a lot of people feel as though this isn't going to be all that everybody is thinking it might be at this point. meanwhile, meet the new front-runner, same as the old front-runner, mitt romney again leading in polls among active candidates. >> the thing about weight thing, president cleveland was a hefty guy. he got elected twice. >> reporter: same with taft. of course, that was 100 years ago. >> i'm just saying. thank you very much. >>> well, president obama called the death of al awe awlaki that they will find no safe haven anywhere in th

now, a mirage happens when a big leap in temperature over a small distance bends light rays and sendstoward the eye. so when you see a pool of water in the middle of the desert, it's really just the blue sky being redirected onto the sand and then sent directly into your eye. now, instead of using sand, these researchers at the university of dallas, they used these microsheets of carbon nanotubes. and by hitting an on and off switch, they can quickly heat the nanotubes, bend the light rays and make an object appear invisible. so you have to check out the demo. it's on youtube. invisiblity created by tricking the human brain. pretty cool stuff. >> really cool stuff. kristi lu stout live from hong kong opinion >>> no, no and no. new jersey governor chris christie puts an end to speculation about a 2012 presidential bid? what does this mean for other candidates still in the race? we'll have a closer look just ahead. it's 13 minutes past the hour. 0 [ beep ] [ man ] you have one new message.

agreements which look great at first sight or look okay and the more you look, there's actually a mirage and no detail underneath it. >> are all these banks going to buy this deal, bondholders going to take this haircut. >> they are making positive noises so the banks were at the table. but so here again w get to the problem with the details. e governments are still trying to characterize this as a voluntary write down of the bonds they hold which basically implies that the banks are going to say well, is it volume taeferment i think actually i'm not going agree to it. then we have this problem if bank a doesn't agree then bank b is not going to agree so again. >> it's not clear what they agreed is a 50% reduction in the nominal value of th debt. so if you had a bon that was 0, it's now 50. but there's no talk about the maturity of any new bond you get in exchange. the coupon there are all kinds of ways in which a 50% reduction in the nominal value might not actually be nearly as much in the kind of present value of what you own. so there again, you know, once the details are out, once t

we asked for a number of things, we thought that two units was to omany -- too many. we asked for single-family homes. it dealt with the mirage a situation, because -- garage situation. i am pretty happy with that. there are a few other comments that i don't know necessarily relevant. how many square feet these are doesn't really make any difference. having a family and having kids coming and going and grandchildren, it is nice to have extra space if you can as long as it conforms to the height and density and other things. the water flow issue i think is a dpi issue. or maybe dpw. i assume the grading has to be in conformity to allow heavy rain to drain properly. there was a light issue brought up and i would encourage the project sponsor to work to make sure that the lighting is non intrusive and still provide security. i visited the site on a clear day, and it is probably scary. although it is a steep grade, this will be a good security measure. finally, i think the question of the height was pretty much answered. i guess if it is averaging as it was pointed out, as you go further up the hill, the height of the uphill stru

it is kind of like a mirage effect. o ferret works best underwater. this is underwater here. this could mean huge thing for, for example, the military. >>> you're at-bat. no pressure, just game four of the national league division series and what do you see scurry across home plate? take a look with me. watch. there it goes. a squirrel. dashing across during last night's game. this is cardinals/phillies. i'll hang tight before i swing. the little guy has been mia since then. one more time one more time. and there it went. >>> and a halloween display triggers a 911 call. it looks like a man hanging from his hands from a rain gutter. this is a dummy. a worried 911 call from a citizen caused the fire department to appear. a similar thing happened when someone saw they saw someone under a lawn mower. >>> with the death of steve jobs, most people remember his incredible innovations but how good b in hollywood? we'll show you how his innovations changed film. plus did you realize he was a pretty funny guy? we'll hear his best

report from the albright's group says because of sanction, iran is facing shortage of a key material, miragingel preforms needed to make ir-1 bellows sharply limiting the number of ir-1 centrifuges it can make. >> iran probably cannot build more than a certain number of these first generation centrifuges. they require high-tech steel in the particular form. >> an alleged plot to assassinate the saudi ambassador is another sign it's in disarray. iran foreign minister says it's willing to investigate the plot but the iran president told al-jazeera the u.s. is trying to start a war. ♪ >> i think that there are people in the u.s. who want this to happen. but i think there are wise people in the u.s. administration who know they shouldn't do such a thing. >> in n a rare show of support, there are currently two u.s. aircraft carrier groups in the gulf off the coast of iran. uss george h.w. bush and uss john c. stennar. fox news. >> bret: still ahead, a surprise visit by libya by a top american official. up next, mitch mcconnell will join us live to talk about jobs, economy and the political climate.

a tax plan he calls 9-9-9. but what is it exactly? 11:40 eastern, scientists are finding ways to make objects vanish. it's not magic it's miragetreet protesters are rallying for a third straight week, today thousands of labor union members are joining them. protests have stretched from new york to boston to los angeles, the movement is called occupy wall street. protesters got a lot of messages. one overall point is how the average worker is struggling. >>> last year, ceos earned 343 times more than the typical american worker, that's according to the afl-cio. and chief executives at the nation's fortune 500 companies earned $11 million. where the average american worker made $33,000. so, income inequality, not the only thing protesters are concerned about. susan candiotti is joining us from the protests. you have been covering these protests for days now, what are the folks there telling you? >> you know, these are people who represent various walks of way, people who are students here, unemployed or have been laid off. they have been take up occupancy for more than three weeks now. they represent different point of views. ta

military fired a missile from a predator drone as well as a french mirage warplane, so there was heavy action against the convoy, but it turned out he was traveling in. >> is the nato mission about to wind down? >> by all accounts. the secretary general putting out a statement indicating that. what we expect to happen in the next couple of day ss there will be a recommendation to nato ministers from the military side of nato. that they can terminate. they can essentially end this military operation nato has been conducting since march. that they will find that essentially, the now emerging government forces, the transitional national council has sufficient powers, authority, that they can control the security situation in the country. there still will be fire fights from loyalists. holdouts in certain areas, make no mistake, but that basically, the finding will be that the job of nato is now down and you should expect to see a special session of nato's north atlantic counsel convened in the next few days to take that vote to end this, wolf. >> we'll see if this does serve as a preceden

there was a nato air strike, we're told, at 8:30 that involved a predator drone and french mirage jets. they don't believe that gadhafi was killed by their strike. we then see this footage that showed gadhafi being captured. what we think happen is that he took shelter from the air strike in that underground culvert, under the drain there, under the road. sheltered from the fighting. at some point was then captured by the rebels and brought up. that's when you see the video. according to the ntc, he had already been shot in the arm. they claim, then, that they were trying to take him to the hospital when the vehicle he was in was hit by crossfire and he was hit in the head. other reports suggest in fact he was actually executed by ntv members. that's something that the ntc is denying vehemently. maybe we will never know what happened. >> extraordinary details, brand dishing a golden gun, that he was screaming, don't shoot, don't shoot. and even turned to a rebel at one stage and said, why are you doing this to me? what have i done to you? >> reporter: extraordinary. the parallels with
