prime minister is threatening to quit the euro with more cuts implemented and needed to secure the beta of one hundred thirty billion euro if it defaults european banks billions by greece would lose out on the struggling countries with face pressure greece has been relying on international cash injection since twenty ten talks of the second bailout of stalled for months and creditors demanding an overhaul of greece's economy which many say is ultimately doomed belgian business journalists. the outcome is already set in stone for the greek government and brussels. the greek government is realizing that there is likely no option left the greek economy is slowing down like a storm and i think we are now at the point where everybody can reach realizes that we cannot go on like this and that unrest even under the in the country is becoming so much of a threat that some drastic things need to be done and my reading of what the greek government is doing is that they are trying to do that they are looking for an alibi to offer to their public by would make it fair well it's not our fault if the

egg beaters are 99% egg whites with a splash of beta carotene to give it the color and extra nutrientsooking for something pure without the extra nutrients, right next to the egg substitutes you can find 100% just egg whites. that's all they are. both are terrific options. >> our last question is a good one. on days that i eat a full breakfast i tend to eat more all day. i usually just have a latte in the morning. is that enough to get my metabolism going? if i eat breakfast how do i avoid overeating all day? >> people who do not eat breakfast regularly experience this. it's mainly psychological, i think. if the nonfat latte does it for her, fuels the a.m. appetite, fine. if she wants to eat a traditional breakfast like oatmeal or yogurt and fruit, write on a piece of paper a formal menu for the day. everything she'll eat. commit to sticking with it. sometimes just knowing what you're going to eat and when is enough to keep you on track and keep your appetite in check. >> okay. if you have the discipline to plan ahead. it's hard. >> the nonfat latte is good, too. >> thank you very much

. >>> frances, you have been beta testing waze, what has it been like? >> fun, almost a little distracting you have to be careful if you are driving out there it is fun to see the other drivers on the road and see where things are slow. of course, if you are a pang you can play with it more and report -- if you are a passenger you can play with it more and report incidents, as long as you are not driving. if you join traffic spotters you can use you on air try to pick a g-rated name right now i want to take you outside, rather to the maps, we have a new crash it is in a rough spot, southbound 680 near and doctory, things always slow -- near andreotti, things always slow there. traffic moving 28 miles an hour, could be slow the rest of the morning. we'll show you 680 further north walnut creek seeing brake lights southbound near north main heavy as you approach highway 24. then we go to another live shot this time the bay bridge toll plaza, it has been -- traffic is light, not much of a delay. i-80 berkeley as you make your way westbound, traffic is slow

. >> a lot of those setups can get pretty negative, especially if you're in the high beta world if we did dip below 1300, because there's only a few stutter steps before we get back to a flat-on year. >> this is one of those years that in 2012, europe is still out there. talk about something else that's rising today, it's apple, as dr. j alluded to. china seeing potential iphone sales of 40 million units for 2012 in china, and dr. j, you're seeing some unusual activity there. >> yeah, just in the first hour and a half today, judge, trade ld 100,000 calls. that's after earnings. so that's pretty surprising to see that kind of impetus to the up side, in other words, a lot of funds listening to what morgan stanley said in their buying upside calls, and individual investors doing the same thing, because the reason these options exchangers, like the one behind me, the reason they're rocking is that individual investors can't really buy a $400 stock, or at least can't buy many shares of it, but virtually everyone can buy 5, 10, 15 option contracts, and if they spread them, they can put a mi

i mean, after figuring out how to put the beta tape in, you're lost from there. >> he's still sittingguests. >> it's interesting because i do this show out of my garage in a weird small neighborhood. and i've had conan o'brien come up there. i've had corral la come up there. steven wright comes up there. it's not a studio situation. here, you come in, get makeup, a lot of people involved. at my house, i got to stand out front going, is that steven wright? to see steven wright wandering around your neighborhood is beautiful. he can make anything funny. you just sort of want to let him be lost for a while. here i am, over here. corolla comes. my neighborhood across street sees corral la and after he leaves, he goes, that was the guy from the thing, right? i'm like, yeah, adam corral la. he's like, i should have had him look at my car. i got old cars. he's the guy, right? he works on old cars. you know what, i'll call him. see if he'll come back. >> jimmy: do people stay -- when you're at your garage, do they stay too longer? do you escort them out? >> it gets a little weird. you know, i

google's style is to race them out in beta form-- that means "not finished yet"-- and let users play with them for free and make suggestions. actually, almost everything on google's home page is free. no one pays to search. >> so we can search for something like "flowers." >> oh, "flowers" is wonderful. >> so people always ask us how google makes money, and you can see here are the ten objective results. >> on the left side of the screen, you get the top ten websites google found related to flowers. >> well, we also have what we called "sponsored links." >> now, these are these ads over here, and you just clicked on one of the ads. >> that's right. >> this is how google makes money. >> this is how google makes money. >> when she clicked on that ad for ftd, ftd paid google. it's a revolutionary idea: advertising to an audience of one and one who's already looking for what you want to sell. the rates are so low--typically between 5¢ and 50 per click-- that almost anyone can afford to advertise, from the biggest company to the smallest mom-and-pop. eric schmidt, google's ceo, who brin a

right now we're in what we consider to be the beta phase, which is we're trying to make sure that thelly feel like we're comfortable with that we'll try to scale in and attract more users. >> people can go to ruck.us and i should say it takes a little time, so this is for people who are really interested in getting involved and doing something, but they can find it very easily. nathan daschle, good to see you. >> good to see you. thanks for having me. >>> the "today" show turned 60 this week. even the president and fist lady sent in a video message. >> over decades and across generations, the "today" show has become a part of american culture, a place where millions tune in to see how their world has changed overnight. that's why we're both so pleased to join all of you in celebrating this remarkable milestone. >> and we know you'll have many more years of success. but first, this is "today" on nbc. >> i wanted to say this. >> check out the emtire state building from early this morning, lit up in "today" show colors. the co-hosts from the past 60 years all on hand to celebrate, includ

interaction i think it was his in-house editor critic advocates she majored in english and was a phi beta kappa and she knew literature. curt had an incomplete education and here was his wife who could really help him and did. after he left to think it is no coincidence that his novels after 1970 become more and more autobiographical. the fiction begins to dry up and he talks more and more about himself until you get all the way to the 1990's when it's a collection of reminiscences. so when he was under the gun to write to take a risk and after he became famous i think it actually sort of cramped his style. i think that the persona dropped over him and made him into an expectation of people, somebody that he couldn't do much with after at that point because that character, that persona was so successful he could hardly walk away from it. let me tell you about the last time i saw him. i came back to see him in march of 2007. we had been communicating a lot. he sent me letters and postcards and i had been sending him all of the quotes from his former students that i could find coming and he

she had majored in english with a phi beta kappa, and she knew literature, and kurt had an incompleteeducation, and here was his wife who could really hip him and did -- help him and did. and after he left, i think it's no coincidence that his novels after 1970 become more and more autobiographical. he talks more and more about himself until you get to time quake in the 1990s when it's just a collection, really, of reminiscences. so i think the best books are before "slaughterhouse five" when he was under the gun to write fast and write what he had a visceral instinct for and to take a risk. and after he became famous and lionized, i think it actually sort of cramped his style. i think the bell jar of celebrity and persona dropped over him and made him into an expectation on people's parts. i mean, somebody that he couldn't, he couldn't do much with after that point because that character, that persona of kurt vonnegut was so successful, he could hardly walk away from it. let me tell you about the last time i saw him. i came back to see him in march 2007. we'd been communicating a lot

there are acids, alpha hi hydroxides and beta.know we're in the kitchen, but what do you have here? >> if you're in the kitchen with me, you're in trouble. i'm bad cook. i'm a big believer in using high-tech when necessary. but a big believer in day to day. the most natural things possible on your skin. things are not pure enough to eat, try not to put them on your skin. mi milk, whole milk. all things you have if h the pantry. honey is great. you can eat it, too. and then this is the one exception. white sugar, granulated. you can use brown. mix up oatmeal. a great hydrator, exfoliater. you can use it every day. >> you'll tell us the amounts on our site. >> make it a nice paste. >> i'm going to do it. you said sleep is important. seven to nine hours. >> you have to go to bed at 6:00 p.m. >> an extra half hour or hour this year. >> critical to your health. >> "the revolution" premiers on monday, january 16th. get more on goodmorningamerica.com. can i eat this? >> yeah. >>> josh, look how lucky i am here. you're at the parade. have

>> exactly, got just a little more, let's say bring the beta from 1.1, 1.05 to 1.02, maybe to pick aumber. >> you saw the gdp number on friday. what is your prediction for the end of the year? >> i think that we will have 2.5% real growth. the 2.8 for the fourth quarter was the best since the second quarter of 2010 but as you saw there's all kinds of cross-currents, the big buildup in inventory, the big decline in defense spending. i don't think either of them are sustainable. final demand was not what we would like to see. i think we're this muddle through, good enough but not great economy. >> what is a good name in the muddle through economy you ta you c talk about? i want to add to chevron, along with conoco and apache in the energy world. in health care, since i mentioned it, you've heard me many times united health hair, hesson, others in that sector. >> i'm not going to consider this on your defensive list but we've been talking about the potential facebook ipo, may get a filing later this week. is that an ipo you think you would try to get a piece of? >> not likely, given the
