men like jeremy blanchard. >> i have never been a drug abuser or a drunk. i knew what i done when i done it. i knew the heinous nature of what i done. i can still to this day remember nearly every blood spot that was in that house. i can remember the wallpaper, the way the bodies were laid. i can remember nearly everything that happened that night. >> blanchard has served a little more than one year of a 195-year sentence. but his facial tattoos will forever commemorate both his crime, the triple murder and the moniker the media gave him, the kokomo slayer. >> that's who i am and what i'm about. yes. >> blanchard tracked down his former girlfriend, her mother, and her mother's boyfriend when they traveled to kokomo, indiana to attend a funeral. blanchard broke into their home, hid inside and stabbed all three to death with a butcher's knife. >> a friend of jessica's told me that she had an abortion and that's what probed my anger and my hatred. i mean that's my child that was killed. i'm not even a political person. i've never thought about abortions this t

but blanchard and his colleagues see the downsides even in that figure. they've revised china's growth down 0.2 percentage points from three months ago, india's down 1.3 points. they forecast an increase of 2.2% in both japan and the united states. and they do predict, as well, stronger growth worldwide next year at 3.6%. blanchard said figuring these things out can make for a complex puzzle. i had the chance to speak with him earlier about what pieces need to fall into place. does seem the recovery is losing a bit of steam. take us where we stand right now in the global recovery. >> the first thing to say is this is still a recovery. we have numbers from the world growth of 3.5%. that's a recovery. it's clear it has weakened since last time we had forecast, which was three months ago, so that's a bit worrisome. just a bit. the reason is probably an increase in uncertainty. there are many reasons always, but one is decrease in uncertainty about what policy makers are going to do in a few crucial parts of the world, and i think that explains the slowdown.

blanchard about the european stability mechanism. that's one of the key tools now in the defense against further threats in the region. eurozone finance ministers launched their new rescue fund just as the meetings here got started 3 european stability mechanism is a regional version of the imf. 17 finance ministers in the eurozone gathered in luxembourg for the inaugural board meeting of the fund. their new tool replaces emergency measures that were established for greece and other cash-strapped countries. the european financial stability facility. now, the fund's lending capacity is going to be about $650 billion. member nations will contribute to it in line with the size of their economy. the people who run it will be lending money to governments in need and they'll use it to purchase state bonds and bail out banks directly. analysts say they do expect one of the first tasks for those managers will be to purchase spanish sovereign bonds. well, imf economists zeroed in on the fiscal health of their host. they said planned increases

. >> dean blanchard is known as the shrimp king of louisiana. he drives around barataria bay at high speed. and though it is hard to tell, things have slowed down for him leaping -- lately. in 2010, the oil spill paralyzed louisiana. since then, he is a shrimp king without shrimp. >> there is a lot of current that goes through here. the oil did not settle on the bottom. anytime the shrimp come through, they go in the park where there is no oil. >> on grand isle, there is oil as far as the eye can see. we are headed for one of the gulf's many oil rigs. dean steers through the petroleum slicks covering the surface. he is not against fossil fuels. >> [no audio] i believe in oil. half my family is in the oil business. i believe in cheap energy. the problem we got is will companies got so big they bought out all our regulatory agencies and bought up all our politicians. >> according to dean, corruption, not oil, is what caused the current crisis. still, the slick has smothered his business. the king is looking for shrimp elsewhere. dozens of miles fu

olivier blanchard downgrading the economic outlook for 2012 and 2013. i also asked him, formally with the spanish central bank, about the warning the fund has given to countries like the u.s. and japan, who have been benefiting from their safe haven status and the capital inflows coming in to their bond markets, keeping interest rates low. the argument surrounding japan is that most of the debt is held by domestic institutions, so there's less of a ricsk, despit the fact that the debt to gop ratio is notoriously high. here's what he had to say on that front. >> it's fundamental that japan puts in place a strategy for fiscal consolidation, which over the median term ensures the sustainability of private finances, because as the crisis shows, once you lose faith in the sovereign, then if you're buying a lot of sovereign bonds, you could be in trouble, and we don't think that this is an immediate risk for japan, but this is something that we want to warn about. >> yeah. when does massive outstanding debt become an issue? when you can't control your currenc

blanchard. >> hello, everyone. if you could, please, take your seats, we'll get, we'll get this maybe penultimate or ultimate panel started. i know it's been a long day, and we'll appreciate your attention for this insightful and, hopefully, thought-provoking panel for arab north africa. the current of change had its humble beginnings in arab north africa. the experiences of countries on the southern shores of the mediterranean offer competing visions of of the course that change may change. the in tunisia, we find a government faced with security challenges and debates over fundamental constitutional principles while economic struggles that helped motivate original calls for change continue. in libya triumph and tragedy have marked the transition that has successfully produced libya's first elected government in 50 years, yet libya remains haunted by its divisive legacy, and its new government has a long way to go to build its own capacity and assert national leadership. egyptians have taken the first steps beyond

founding fathers nathan blanchard and wallace hardison first bought the land way back in 1893 and named the ranch limoneira, which means "lemon lands" in portuguese. >> and at the time, they wanted to bring about the first full-scale commercial operation citrus ranch in the u.s. and from there, we added, throughout the years, over the last 115-16 years, 3 other families have come into the fold, and that's where we've grown today to be our 7,000 acres that we are in california. >> once called the home of the lemon, it actually took 15 years before those first farmers even turned a profit at the limoneira farm. but they persevered, and as they say, they've come a long way, baby. things have obviously changed a lot over the years, but one thing that hasn't changed is the desire to explore innovative programs. the farm invests a lot of time, research, and investment into improving lemon production through innovation. in 2008, they completed work on a solar panel project that stretches across nearly 5 acres and can help to power their lemon storage facility and packing house. and despite bei
