that, according to the president of its global market institute, abby joseph cohen. >> we do think that the new bull market has begun. it may prove that it began in march of this year. clearly, many people were looking for better signs on the economy and we're now getting them. >> cohen now things that the year-end target for the s&p is around 1,100. joining us now to discuss is albert william and kim doe. howard, let's start with you. it seems as though over the last week or so people have become very bullish on this market, as much as everyone was skeptical that this was just a bear market bounce, a lot of people like abby joseph cohen are convinced this is a real thing. what do you think? >> i've seen it, i felt it, i'm afraid i disagree with it. i worry about bulls being still born and this may well be the case. i am extremely concerned about nasty inflation. at some point, we have to have an exit strategy. we haven't got that exit strategy from the stimulus packages that both got faired and the various central banks around the world have made. they've done a fantastic job. they hav

let's bring in our internet reporter, abbi tatton.w a woman being led out clearly very agitated. she is yelling, being taken out by police. that's the video that we saw yesterday but now we've got another video that was shot from up there in the bleachers at exactly the same time. this was shot by a democratic strategist, peter glick. he says he was there to document the event but he just wanted to tape it. the woman is right here at the bottom. glick and other people there say she had entered with a sign. signs were not allowed. she had been asked to put it down. she had done so. now, i want to press play on this video. you will see this woman walking towards her at the bottom. this is photo journalist, ali gardner. she wanted the woman's name to know what was on the sign for a story. the sign showed rosa parks name and some images for the civil rights movement. now, look at that guy. that guy walks over, snatches the sign and the woman follows him. she appears to be trying to get that sign back. there is a scuffle and then the man i

cnn's special investigations unit correspondent, abbie boudreau, has been looking in to a case from a young man living in florida. his story sheds a lot of light on all of this. >> reporter: christopher, out for a walk. that spinning? a sign of autism. no one argues this teenager has been a very difficult child to manage. but here he is again last october. the abrasions? his parents say they're signs of abuse. >> look at this when he was injured at school and this ended up being his very last day of school. >> reporter: the school said the injury happened during a bar procedure, or brief assisted relaxation restraint. and this is how that relaxation technique looks on school security video. what you're seeing is footage from the princeton house charter school for children with autism in orlando, florida. notes sent home in 2008 by princeton house show a disturbing es escalation of christopher's disruptive behavior. >> he slowly started to become a loner. he started to become really quiet. >> reporter: and his mother says, he was becoming increasingly violent, so destructive his parent

. >> you're a roob abbi, stephanid we heard the minister repeatedly say two wrongs don't make a right in defending his decision. >> i think one thing to think about is that this man could have been and was treated compassionately in prison for his illness. that does not mean that he should be released in order to go back as brian said to the regime that caused the bombing to begin with and killed my husband and brian's brother and so many other people. >> tell me something other about michael bernstein. >> one of the ironies here is that he was committed and in effect gave his life to bring to justice what we would call the foot soldiers of the holocaust. >> and those are your children. >> those are my children, they're now 28 and 24. and they did not get the benefit of growing up with their father, so the idea of justice is very important here. justice to me means that we care just as much about justice for the foot soldiers as we do for the people who master the bombings. >> tell me something about j.p. flynn, your brother. >> he was a great older brother, when he died i was only 20

. >> reporter: one of kennedy's greatest passions was to secure healthcare for people like abby, a young woman. she was two months shy of earning health insurance when she was diagnosed with a tumor. >> fast forward. surgery is done and i'm healthy and i have a bill for $12,000 that i can't afford. my parents had to refinance their home to help me pay off my debt. >> reporter: maryland's chris is one of the democratic leaders of the effort to pass health reform. >> i believe that if kennedy were in the senate today and really able to work and be able to work it for many weeks, we would have seen more progress in the senate. >> reporter: the controversy over the healthcare overhaul was rockous in resten. >> these folks are not from the eighth district. they really don't belong here and i'm going to ask them to leave. >> reporter: congressman jim moran suspects that kennedy's passing may help quiet the anger and smooth the passage of the bills. >> he needs to get his bill enacted. it needs to be named after him and that should be the legacy he leaves for future generations. >> reporter: mo

left and the black power movement was juvenile, not specific, and i tell a story in the book about abbie hoffman who was one of the most prominent anti-war activist he was from the youth international party and i tell a story how john lindsay made him an ambassador between the city and the community on the lower east side and part of that is he could not be arrested so he would take advantage of that and day to the cops and in one story he so bay today, that he literally smashed the display case in the precinct house that held the commendations to us because he could. when you are at that level of childishness, that does not make it easy for us to pull together as a commonwealth. it is when the rage was on differentiated and directed at senators to oppose the war like edmund muskie to recite the radical movement things got very irresponsible. >> host: as a politician do you respect richard nixon? >> guest: he was the bus. he was not quite good enough to bluff his way through two full terms but as far as his ability to find and discern the subterranean mood barely been eighth in the servi

on the other hand, he was not a big fan of jerry rubinnd abbie hoffman.he was a big fan when they were on trial and he felt the trial revealed the nature of american justice during war time and what happened to the country and he felt the political fear was affected but again and again even though the neweft were his new readers they would chastise him and say you need to decide if you are a pea movement or were movement because some people say victory to the vietcong. that is legitimate position but you'll never convince the american people of that position and the only way to stop the war is to convince the majority of american people it is wrong and to do that you have to respectfully address them on the grounds for you can expect some common ground he was someone who felt very much that liberals and needed radicals in order to move theountry and the conversation radicals need liberals because without them there was no majority. he was always a small the democrat he did not believe it could not get anything done without convincing the majority of the a

later on today, but it's so slight, we hesitate to even mentiyou'moe re b pd you'll be more prepared abbiour sunshine than urll uabremba.re right now in downtow elsewhere, it's 69 chevy e, it's 69 chevy ti ce chctrian ch idetdl atow middletown, right now it's 69. so temperatures where they should be again, and comfortable. of course, muggy today and muggy over the next couple of days. we're actually going to crank up want heat. today, 87 the high temperature. but into the lower 90's mos likely into the weekend. as a matter of fact, we've had 15 90-degree days so far this year, andhat's about half the normal amount for this time of year, so we could use a few more, and looks like we'll get them this weekend. now back to jim russ for our friday commute. >> traveling on the beltway, things in brett guide shape around town. springfield, a crash northbound on 95 north of fredericksburg, route 3. it's on the shoulder. our caller is reporting there is slow traffic getting past it, but that the lanes are open. take you to some maps, and we'll show you that. early morning crash on the suitland par

it's where sesame street goes to vacation because they have a partnership with elmo and abby cadabbither characters. and the one in turks and caicos is really their primary resort. they just expanded it. and they've added some family deluxe suites. they've also added five new restaurants so the count is now up to 16 restaurants. this is all inclusive, it's fantastic. they have a water park, and maybe exfanded that one. and normally this is a very expensive vacation. but this time of year, because you know we're going into hurricane season, it's heavily discounted, so families can get up to 65% to 67% off and that brings a vacation for a family of four down to $2,278 for seven nights. and that's a starting rate always. so you really have to call reservations and make sure if you have a budget for that that you get that rate. but you can go up higher than that. it is wonderful. and that's right below miami. so it's not a long trip to get there. >> okay, let's get to miami. i understand there are deals there, as well? >> the whole month of august miami is on sale. they have restaurant d

abby joseph cohen greg with larry this is the new bull market. how can you profit from it? investors share the bull strategies. here to date. what's working for the online jewelry retailer. the company's ceo joining us live. the cnbc exclusive interview only here on "the call." taking its rightful place in a long line of amazing performance machines. this is the new e-coupe. this is mercedes-benz. in the north of england to my new job at the refinery in the south. i'll never forget. it used one tank of petrol and i had to refill it twice with oil. a new car today has 95% lower emissions than in 1970. exxonmobil is working to improve cars, liners of tires, plastics which are lighter and advanced hydrogen technologies that could increase fuel efficiency by up to 80%. >>> look at the market now. 9400, coming up on the great jobs number. they said, watch the jobs number come in lighter than expected and the market doesn't rally. that shows you it's not for real. that's exactly the opposite. number came in better than expected and the market is on fire. >> and a strong dollar to

let's get some background from our internet reporter, abbi tatton.om." this is a complex story, where these pilots can fly over new york city. >> reporter: it's a complicated air space. there are three major airports there but on top of that, pilots operate under different rules, depending on how high they're flying. let's take you through what we're talking about here in new york city. taking you down to the area along manhattan, along the hudson river here. what we've done is we've mapped out the altitude of 1100 feet, because that's important. above 1100 feet, pilots must be checking in with air traffic control. these are -- these could be commercial pilots, these could be smaller aircraft as well, but they're all under the jurisdiction of the air traffic controllers that are operating in those airports around the city. underneath 1100 feet, then it's a different story. this is a congested area. this is sea planes, small aircraft could be there, helicopters, private aircraft, single engine aircraft, all down here, and they are not under the jurisd

our internet reporter abbi tatson is here with us. what else is in these boxes?e not boxes. these are the time capsules. more than 600 containers of stanley cup collected by andy warhol that archivist in the museum in pittsburgh are painstakingly going through and catalogi cataloging. we'll show you why it's taking so long. each one has hundreds of items in them, everything from gifts to photographs, food in some case, wads of cash in others. this is the reason. for up until his death in 1987 warhol kept a cardboard box like one of these next to his desk and anything that passed in his hands he would put in there a the end of each month, seal it off, send it to storage. these are necklaces bearing photographs of john f. kennedy. that's a handwritten thank you note from barbara walters from 1977. photo booth self-portrait of the artist here. there's probably 250,000-plus items they're going through. year two of the six-year project, just a third of the way through. >> amazing stuff. what other items stand out? >> well, there is an archivist who's been going throug

i think it's effective because we have abby indicated in large part responsibility of training youngstersor a young age. so we need messages like this now for the population as they get into their teens. unfortunately, we haven't communicated the seriousness to youngsters that driving is very dangerous and as such, we need messages like this to let them know. >> i agree with it. it is hard to watch but i know when my teen gets ready to start driving, he's definitely going to watch it. let's get mark dimassimo in on this. your thoughts on this. >> absolutely. look, it's an emotional intense experience. and i have to feel that you know, the police departments behind this, the first responders wanted to express this what they experience in reality. so what you have here is a reality. and the only thing shocking about it is the idea that people have that this is running on tv in "primetime." i doubt that that is true. i doubt it ran without a warning. i think it's trik for education. it's terrific for the internet. it's just important for kids to know. >> let's get peter watkins-hughes in on
