the president has been audacious in many areas but there are other areas where he hasn't been as audacious as people would like. and this is a classic case where everybody kind of presumes he's going to do this. so why doesn't he just do it now? >> well, again, i'm not going to make news for the president here. the president speaks very well for himself, piers. but i think actions speak louder than words. he's taken historic steps over the last three and a half years to stand up for the rights of gay and lesbian americans. and to allow them to serve openly and honestly in the military. to grant them those partnership rights in government. to fight this -- to repeal this -- turn back this law that would have states be able -- not recognize legally a sanction marriages among gay americans. so i think his actions are -- speak more loudly than any words. and i'm proud of him for taking those steps. i think they were -- you know, some would say audacious steps in and of themselves. he led us on that path. >> let's move on to the breaking news today about a cia uncovering a plot to have a more s

so the fact that they have written this letter and it's in the public, that in and of itself is audacious. >> yes, he was the former politician stripped of his post a couple of weeks ago. he was expected to be promoted in a once in a decade leadership change later this year. those calling for the current one's dismissal -- they say he supported the policies of bringing back the mount a dome era and policy feelings towards that time in china. they don't want to see that happen. they think he ought to go in order to make sure that doesn't happen. >> thank you. you're watching "bbc world news." still to come. the flight records are discovered could it give light to the russian aircraft crash in indonesia? in kenya, one person was killed and five were injured in an attack on a nightclub in mum bassa. gunmen opened fire and threw grenades from outside the building. >> it was this mum bassa nightclub, the bella visita that was the target of the attack. police say gunmen tried to force their way into the club but was prevented by security. according to the red cross, they shot the guard in the c

this is on the heels of the fcc audacious decision to block another merger in in the headlines. there will be a lot on where they stand on the merger going in. i think that is one of the biggest issues wall street will look at right away. there are a lot of questions as to how successful incentive options themselves can be. they can give up spectrum for options pared by the time the incentive options are put into place, the chairman may not even be there anymore. jessica rosenworcel and ajit pai are going into adopt a plan that they did not conceive in many ways. so there are a lot of questions about how far this goes, how spectrum plans in general will pan out over the next couple of years, given what is predicted to be a lot of change. >> cecilia's right. it will take years for any kind of options planning. the last time they tried this, it was a couple of years and that was not anywhere near as complex as what you're talking about with incentive options. the whole thing will be very complex. she is right in that we may not chenokowsky.chaikovsk >> are we hearing things? are t

all of them beginner athletes with one audacious goal, to race the nautica malibu triathlon with me ineptember. >> get across the finish line? >> no doubt. >> to see them is to know they each have their own obstacles. >> i had my right leg amp uitated below the leg. >> they have been transforming them schblgs. their workouts and their diets, one day at a time. with just four months to go, there's still plenty of time to train. and we're joined now by one of our athletes, rick morris, whose video we watched. you're a veteran, and you wanted to quit smoking, two of the lie lites i remember from the video. you put the cigarette out last time we met. and how has that been going? have you been able to not go back? >> i have. no relapses at all. i will never go back to smoking. >> i talk about switches going off for people, a lot of people say, look, i have kids. i want to live a long time, but i still smoke or i do things that are unhealthy. what made it possible for you? >> i think just the total desire to want to quit. i got tired of not sleeping well, i got tired of feeling poorly, you k

no company of our skiez or complexity has set such audacious goals. yet this new model of sustainable and long-term growth is absolutely needed and we call it the unilever sustainable living plan. we have 60 time bomb targets covering the entire value chain and that will reduce hopefully the impact that we have and at the same time improve the lives of millions of people around the world especially the many that go to bed hungry, or the many people that we call small home farmers and many more. we want to save lives. it cannot be right that in today's world millions of children die every year of preventable diseases like diarrhea when the answer lies in simple hand washing. it simply cannot be right that one child dies still every six seconds in this world it simply cannot be right that a billion people go to bed hungry every night. therefore i'm very please that had the secretary general is here as well and would certainly call for endorsing strong lizly his initiatives of every woman, every child, our energy for all and scaling up nutrition. our sus

that was audacious and ridiculous, because we were then king of oil. but we did reach our maximum oil production in 1970. today we produce about half the oil that we produced in 1970, in spite of drilling more oil wells and all the rest of the world put together. about a year after -- by the way, he predicted that the world would be reaching its maximum oil production about now, and maybe we have, because for the last five years, the world has been stuck at 84 million barrels of oil a day. maybe that's just a pause and it will continue to go up. maybe it's the peak and we will do, and the world will have done what was done in the united states, go down after this. just about a year after his speech, hyman rickover gave a great speech. google for it, please, a speech that will come up and he noted that in the 8,000 year recorded history of man the age oil would be but a blip and he cautioned that we had no idea how long it lasted but how long it lasted was important in only one regard he said. the longer it lasted, the more time we would have to plan an

buy spectrum from cable companies, and this is on the heels of the fcc's, um, pretty, you know, audacious if you will, um, decision to block another her injure that was really big and created a loot of headlines. a lot of head liens. so there's going to be a lot of interest on how they stand on that merger, i think that's probably one of the biggest issues wall street's going to look at right away. and also there's a lot of questions to how successful incentive auctions can be k. if terms are right for broadcasters, if they want to give up spectrum for auction. by the time the auctions are put in place, the chairman may not even be there anymore, he's the one that designed this. jessica rosenworcel and ajit pai are adopting a plan they didn't conceive in many ways although jessica worked on this quite a bit, the idea of incentive auctions and spectrum on the hill. so there's a lot of questions as to how far this goes, these incentive auction plans, how spectrum plans in general will pan out over the next couple years given what's predicted to be a lot of change. >> guest: cecilia's right,

. >> the president when running made an extremely audacious promise that he was going to reduce corporatewashington. the only way to do that is to find some other power to push against it. the only way he could feesbly fulfill that promise is if he took that list of $12 million progressives12 millionprogressives who signed up for small donations and continued to grow that and activate it corporate power has this, and i have these people over here, i have to listen to them. those 12 million people combined would say the constitutional powerinstitutionalpower of labor you might have a counter power to corporations. but just saying we're not going to let them work for us or we're not going to hire them if they've been a lobbyist since two years and we're not going to take their money is not going to do it. all lobbyists are agents for corporate power. they are not the power themselves. all he would have to say is that i'm not taking money from corporate ceos or anyone who is sitting on a corporate board if he's really trying to make it so corporations don't set the agenda. that's the recipe

the sword once, twice, maybe three times about -- this is a fear of making obama not look like an audaciousngs happen the immediate reaction of the staff -- i can imagine if i was there pulling my hair out -- to explain the process. let it go. it's not helpful. i think what the president did was incredibly brave. whether it's costly or not is debatable, but it is a brave thing for him to do politically. when you go through this process and hearing here's how it happened and he apologizes. i think it's bigger if they leave what the president said alone. >> you know, look, the conservative blog o sphere is already popping up about this. ed kline book who loves to write salacious clinton books. this has to do with bill clinton somehow. trying to recruit hillary clinton. ed kline's relationship with the truth has been a struggle over the years? >> yes. i think that's right. and i would say that this story is just unbelievable. one thing we know about bill clinton is he generally has good political instincts. he was thinking dr. >> he's not a dumb man. >> of course. >> he understands the politic

a lot of people say it is an audacious goals, changing the leadership landscape of this country in onegeneration of girls. but i said it is time. how can you wait for another generation to pass by without getting those opportunities? when my mother was growing up, her opportunities were limited compared to mind -- to mine but she did everything in her power to take down those doors and barriers. to engage more girls and to make other people aware. i am hoping all of you here, you will educate your colleagues at work. set them down and say have you heard about this campaign? it is powered by rolls cows but everybody is involved. -- by girl scouts but everybody is involved. our goal is to engage adults in becoming aware and advocating on behalf ofgirls and donating to the cause. to a girl scouts organization for an organization that empowers girls. it is about every single community organization coming together to support leadership. >> girl scouts the -- the girl scouts have a long history of being inclusive to gays and lesbians. how does that inclusiveness shaped what the organization

. >> i think it's pretty audacious for a congressman from ohio who is still representing the people ofhe can come to washington state and sort of instantly know what issues are pressing in these districts with open seats. >>reporter: one political who is in kucinich corner is steve chairman of the king county democratic party. he would like to see the ohio take on republican dave reichert in the eighth district. >> make certain we have the best qualified candidate running and certainly a sitting congress person there 16 years is not somebody we should write off. >>reporter: for his part kucinich being coy. he thanked his supporters in the ever grown state and launched his own on line survey about whether he should run. of republican party chair a yes vote. >> dennis is not a quiet guy. not a shy guy. he is not shying away from the taxpayers and would he take them and show the democrats -- show the people how they are. >> g.o.p. chairman only half joking when he offered to pay kucinich moving expense. if the congressman decides to run he is running out of time under state law to get on

. >> absolutely right but still the militants in pakistan we saw two weeks ago with the audacious attack some say came across from pakistan and penetrated the very heart of the government, didn't get to the palace in kabul but it did get to the parliament and the other, of course, issue is remember, we all remember when the united states packed up and left after the soviets were defeated, this is what gave the space to the mujahadin, that led to the taliban that led to al qaeda that led to 9/11. this is what they're saying will not happen because we'll have presence here. >> the republican criticism of president obama announcing this withdrawal timetable you're allowing the taliban, giving them a timetable they can just wait it out. >> the crucial issue anderson and this is absolutely crucial, the united states does not believe that they can, that this is winnable on the battlefield even though they're making progress. the taliban is still there. they want to negotiate with the taliban. even now, despite all the talk about it, there is none of that going on in any formal fashion and many

so they have done this kind of thing in the past and it really is kind of audaciously in your face.ou in to do it after we've removed everything that could possibly get us in trouble. >> thank you both very much. >>> well, our fourth story outfront, new evidence in the case of a connecticut man who disappeared while on his honeymoon in 2005. you probably remember this story. the evidence now points to foul play. george smith and his wife, jennifer, were on a cruise when they went separate ways after a night of partying. jennifer said she never saw her husband again. his body has never been found, but now a videotape made by a group of men who helped smith to his room the night he vanished is giving the fbi some fresh leads. outfront tonight, george smith's sister and mily's lawyer, mike jones. brie, let me start with you, what do you know or have you heard, seen in this video? what is new? >> well, we haven't actually seen the video, but from what we have gathered it's a group of the russian men last seen with my brother sitting around a table. apparently during the course of their

request and of course most people wanted to tickets and in the case of one letter to 18 which seems as audacious as if in fact was. in the five churches the seemingly endless numbers of the associations in the town offered help but it would still be a huge shortage so they enlisted the help in st. louis to deliver aid falls and pounds of hot dogs and 3,000 pounds of hamburger as one does. delayed thousands of yards of telephone cables turning the sidewalks into temporary construction sites and even the homeless and season the turmoil and they have a new turf in case churchill wanted one of his famous and well-publicized and a couple of them in europe give up the room to former prime minister could take the customary afternoon nap. journalists and photographers from more than 200 which was once the trading capital of the midwest and now spoke for the factories, the funds that surrounded the town and the wide assortment declined to drag which consisted of about three-fourths and while they were in their army of volunteers got everything ready, winston churchill was journeying down to miami in flor

jamie dimon goes out on a limb and audaciously says this is tempest in a teapot.admits i didn't know what the heck ways talking about. i was uninformed. i didn't know anything. this is the ceo. this is the head of the bank. does he deserve to keep his job? >> well, i mean that is the question. actually everybody is keeping their job at this point as they are going through the investigation. it's hard to know. it's hard to tease it all out. he is admitting that something was done wrong. the discretionary thing is that it really could get worse in the future. that is what everybody is watching for. >> gregg: as i watched the interview, i'm expecting bigger losses, more than $2 billion? >> yes. i don't know. he is pretty much saying there could be. i think he said it could get worse. >> gregg: a month ago, he said tempest in the teapot and he is saying it could get worse. he has been one of the biggest opponents of the financial regulation, his lobbyists have been trying to take down dodd-frank. today he said, oh, gee that is untrue. i'm a big supporter of dodd-frank

no company our size, our complexity has set such audacious goals, yet this new model of sustainable andwe call it the unilever sustainable living plan. we have 60 targets covering the entire value chain and that will reduce, hopefully, the impact that we have and at the same time improve the lives of millions, millions of people around the world especially the many that go to bed hungry in russia or the many people that are what we call small hold farmers and many more. we want to save lives. it simply cannot be right that even in today's world millions of children die every year of preventable diseases like diarrhea when the answer just lies in simple hand washing. it simply cannot be right that one child dies still every six seconds in this world, and it simply cannot be right that a billion people go to bed hungry every night. therefore, i'm very pleased that the secretary general is here as well and would certainly call for enforcing his initiatives of every woman, every child or energy for all and scaling up nutrition. some of these things are absolutely needed. our sustainable liv

he recently said that the raid to get bin laden was the most audacious act in the last 500 years. we just wrote a little piece ying, d-day? pearl harbo? 9-11? >> when he was talking about crime in michigan, -- you had to wait 20 minutes, the statistics were changing. things were getting more of a of line. we had three different misstatements. we are just about out of time. do we have time for any questions? i guess we do not. thank you for your attention. >> if one of the goals of the process is increasing [applause] the likelihood the candidates change their behavior, we hear that does not happen very often. the panelists have not taking credit for something they deserve pettit -- credit for, the claim that romney has produced 100 dozen jobs. it has been backed off. one person commented that government romney had crafted the most carefully statement to make his claim accurate. the bottom line was, thousands of jobs. now they claim appears to be, he can claim a larger numbers across the life of the company. that is a significant claim. other republican candidates contributed. all

he just recently said that, the raid to get bin laden was the most audacious act in the last 500 years. and we just wrote a little piece saying, d-day? pearl harbor? 9/11? whatever. anyway. >> now that michele bachmann is gone, we still have joe and -- >> that's right. >> when he started talking about crime in flint, michigan, if you, if what he said one, one forum was true or borderline, you just had to wait about 20 minutes and suddenly the statistics were changing and things were getting more out of line. i think we had him in about three different misstatements of fact in three different forums, the crime rate in flint, michigan. we are just about out of time. do we have time for a request from the awed -- a question from the audience? i guess we don't. we have one minute. i will turn it back over to kathleen so we can stay on schedule. thank you for your attention. [applause] >> if one of the goals of the fact-checking process is increasing the likelihood that the candidates change their behavior i think we're hearing that that doesn't happen very often. i think however the paneli

and i will tell you a lot of people are like, well, anna, that's an audacious goal. you know, changing the leadership landscape of this country in one generation of girls. but i said, you know, it's time. how can we wait for another generation to pass by without getting those opportunities? you know, when my mother was growing up, her opportunities were limited compared to mine but she did everything in her power to kick down those doors and those barriers. so i think it's our obligation as adults, again, to engage more girls and to make other people aware. so i'm hoping all of you here, and now that you know to get her there, you'll educate your colleagues at work. have you heard about this campaign? it's powered by girl scouts but actually everybody's involved. and did you know that, you know, we need to invest more in girls? did you know girls need mentors around science, math and technology? so, again, our goal is to engage adults, one, to becoming aware, right, advocating on behalf of girls saying this is what girls need and then donating to the cause. again, to
