most of them rose after coordinated action by the world's banks including the federal reserve.er, perhaps a little profit taking. also olli rehn saying there's just ten days to save the single currency, the euro, otherwise we could see a total collapse of the eu. andrew? >> certainly a brave man putting a time like that, ten days to save europe. so let's take a quick look at the asian markets now. certainly, as nina was saying, a big pop here across the region. as you see there the standout is hong kong. this obviously a very liquid market, but certainly getting a double boost today. not only was the general confidence boost from the liquidity moved by the central banks around the world. there was also the chinese move to allow the banks to lend a little bit more money which certainly helped sentiment in hong kong as well. you can see shanghai also getting a boost. looking broadly, there was the biggest rise we've seen in hong kong for two years now, although it has come off from a relentless selling spiral. but really if you watch the space now, we've certainly seen the catchu

coordination is essential.regional governments must participate in designing programs and invest their own resources in them. our efforts must be comprehensive and hole of government. we must be flexible enough to adapt to the changing tactics of the drug trafficking organizations themselves. there are some who are throwing their hands up. we heard the same thing in the 1980s. they were wrong then and i predict they will be wrong this time as well. i thank you, mr. chairman, and look forward your comments and your questions. >> thank you, mr. benson. >> good morning, chairman, ranking member marco rubio, thank you for the opportunities speak on the eat a's assessment of drug trend in the caribbean region. on behalf of the men and women of drug enforcement administration, thank you for your support. the caribbean region continues to be a focus of u.s. counterdrug efforts. the school principal drug threat is cocaine trafficking. smuggling and abuse of apps, marijuana, are also of concern as is the diversion of pr

i also understand that it is a later step where you coordinate the peripheral departments. i think it is part of what will meet our needs and the city's priorities. >> can anyone give me an answer, how long would it take to get our records that are currently on microfilm to digital? >> it would be a lot. >> is it going to take, -- is it going to take 10, 20, 30 years? >> we have already been working on that. >> i understand that, but does anyone have any idea how long? maybe the department needs to farm it out to an outside company and have them bring it back to the table so that it is ready to implement with it the system that we have got. >> over the last two years we have been setting funds for this project. the estimate is that it is going to take five years to do the project. we had every intention to farm out, if you will, quite a bit of it. we could have to take out rfp to do this. there were several vendors that worked with the city to work on this digitization of records. the big issue is going to be working hand in hand with the unions to ensure that we are all to

i just you know we're seeing this propaganda machine we're seeing this coordinated campaign right now and the irony is that a lot of the hardliners in iran love this stuff you know and it came into office wanting to build this perception at least that iran was getting involved in latin america and so there's a symbiotic relationship between hardliners in iran and hardliners in the united states to make it seem like this is actually happening when in reality you ron's presence in latin america is very minimal i want to take a moment to listen to what the lex he is the former head of the international atomic energy agency what he had to say he compares iraq and iran and their potential to develop nuclear weapons mr blix he also led the u.n. weapons inspections team and iran prior to the iraq war let's take a listen. well there are some similarities in the. escalation of the language in the threats. that we had in the case of iraq and now having a case of iran on the other hand we must remember that in the case of iraq they talked about. weapons that in fact did not exists today they are

she currently works as the title seven court nader. -- coordinator. she is assisting and directing an after-school program that includes wraparound services for native students in oakland. she is also the co-founder and a lead organizer for indian people organizing for change, a small native-run organization that works on indigenous people issues, as well as sponsoring an annual peace walk to bring about education and awareness of the desecration of the sacred sites in the greater bay area. in april of this year, corrina, wounded knee decampo, and others, put out a call to warriors to put out a vigil and occupation of vallejo, calif., a secret 15-acre site. the occupation lasted for 109 days and resulted in a cultural easement between the city of vallejo, the greater vallejo recreation district, and two federally recognized drives. this struggle was victorious and will set precedents for this type of work, going forward, with others working on sacred sites within city boundaries in california. corrina also sits on the california indigenous environment

military investigation found miscommunications and a lack of coordination between u.s. and pakistani forces. and american commanders' maps were nine miles off target. more disturbing the u.s. military gave the pakistanis imprecise information during the operation because the americans simply don't trust them. and that distrust and suspicion is mutual. >> they lose sight of the fact that they have very shared, common interests in the region. and that's the target that they forget and they end up shooting at each other. >> reporter: distrust that threatens the u.s. war effort in afghanistan. >> we cannot operate effectively on the border or in other parts of our relationship without addressing the fundamental trust still lacking between us. >> reporter: not surprisingly the pakistanis reject the u.s. findings and regaining the trust seems more distant than ever. jim miklaszewski, nbc news, the pentagon. >>> in this country on the gop campaign trail today mitt romney picked up an endorsement from george h.w. bush, 41, who called the former massachusetts governor the best c

nevertheless, inadequate coordination by u. is is and pakistani military officers operating through the border coordination center, including our reliance on incorrect mapping information shared with the pakistani liaison officer, resulted in a misunderstanding about the true location of pakistani military units. this, coupled with our gaffes in information about the activities in placement from units from both sides contributed to the tragic result. >> warner: the pentagon expressed regret for the loss of life and the inadequate coordination in what's been the deadliest friendly fire incident of the afghan war. for more on the story, we go to "wall street journal" reporter adam entous. >> warner: adam, welcome. so set the scene for us. what happened that deadly night? >> well, what happened was is we had what appeared to be a routine operation, about 120 afghan and u.s. commandos came into a valley. they land in helicopters. it's pitch-black. there's no moon that night. and they begin to ascend. as they're winding up these nar

the stock market loves coordination. they want to see an attack to do something about it. but when you look at the sovereign nations and governments, to diane's point, fiscal austerity measures, getting your deficits in order, these are things that are going to take years to address. it's going to require the devaluation of currencies. but if you look right now at what's going on in corporate america, corporate america is still hoarding cash. they're tightening their belts. they are being extremely careful. this sets up for a very cautious 2012 and the u.s. cannot ignore. >> yeah. >> what's going on in europe and, frankly, what's going on in china. >> you know, muhammad, stocks in the u.s. soared on wednesday. the dow was up i think 490 points at the end of the day on news that the central banks were taking action. then we found out that the unemployment rate dropped to 8.6%. i mean, some are saying, okay, look. the worst is behind us. others are saying, oh, wow. what a perfect chance to sell. what are people to make of where we are if we could -- we could very well have a

dozens killed in a coordinated attack in afghanistan. by today's bomb >> just one day after world leaders met to discuss the future of afghanistan, dozens are killed in a coordinated attack. suicide bombers struck crowds of shiite muslims as they celebrated the holiest day on their calendar. more on the deadliest day in that country in nearly a decade -- >> at least 58 people have been killed and nearly 200 injured in a coordinated attacks in afghanistan in different parts of the country. the first one took place in the capital placekabul, where a suicide bomber targeted shiite muslims. 54 people were killed in that attack. at least 150 people were wounded. later, in northern afghanistan, a similar attack to the one we saw in kabul. this time, it was a bicycle bomb, also targeting shia muslims. in kandahar, another attack. no one was killed in that attack. we have not seen sectarian violence in the past in afghanistan to even the taliban sent out an e-mail condemning the attack, and said the taliban would never attack afghans on the basi

central banks around the world are taking coordinated actions to avoid a legitimate threat of another global credit freeze, the likes of which we haven't seen since after the days of lehman's collapse in 2008. we all remember what happened then. the credit freeze kills businesses, closes factories, wipes out millions of jobs around the world. diane swonk, chief economist and mohammed ceo of pimco and alexis glick has experience working on wall street and covering it and the ceo of the gen youth foundation. diane, start with you, bottom line, are there lessons from 2008 that can be applied today to avert another global financial crisis? >> well, we're already seeing them applied. the fact that central bankers are not really talking to each other before the financial crisis actually emerged in august of 2007 or july of 2007 was a major detriment to them dealing with it know and it became a shock in august of 2007 and they really didn't have the communication going. they've. been planning different scenarios. the problem is they have fewer tools but the coordinated move this week shows t

because there's been admissions from different government officials that there was coordination among different mayors offices employees agencies and they discussed talking points and tactics for dealing with the occupy movement and there's a real question as to federal involvement i mean i don't think anyone would credibly suggest that the federal government is not evaluated is not looking at is not considering how to deal with this massive movement taking over the united states and inspiring people worldwide of course they are so we have simply asked the cia and other federal agencies to turn over and make public their documents related to any coordination or involvement they have had in these crackdowns and that's where the partnership for civil justice fund is trying to obtain right now so if the cia is involved that raises a lot of serious or legal questions because that breaches both that departmental code and national legislation could we talk about the legal implications of this shore while the cia you know has a very ugly history of the united states of domestic surveillance

in the past when those coordinates have been given to the pakistanis, u.s. military commanders say those coordinates were misused and in fact the general described an october 6 incident where u.s. troops getting on a helicopter were fired upon by the pakistanis. so all of this leads to the tension and suspicion, suspicious atmosphere that was the background to this unfortunate incident. jenna: very important reminder about that though, that they felt uncomfortable about giving that information to the pakistanis for a reason, not just, just because. it will be an interesting story to see how we watch it develop further. jennifer, thank you very much. we'll continue to watch it today. jon? jon: well the politicians on capitol hill, jenna, may be ready to break for the holidays but at least two members of the house say they are sticking around until the payroll tax extension issue is resolved. republicans nan hayworth and tom reed are urging americans not to take the short-term extension, the two-month extension essentially offered by the senate lying down. rep

it all depends on how it lays out, again, coordination with the contractor himself or professional that wants to be responsible for the location of where that is going to be. also, you could actually have motors in other locations. they could be up in an attic space or somewhere else that would provide servicing for that picture. >> so it is a good requirement that there is to be an access panel for that murder. >> that's right. 100% for plumbing and electrical as well. >> every one of these has to be independently tested and approved. you cannot make your own fixture? you have to have enlisted piece of equipment. >> settings and fixtures need to be listing accordingly. definitely. >>:. the next thing we are going to do is answer the question that i received in an e-mail from ray, who wanted to know about what a saving features in toilets and sinks. look at all of these toilets. this is great. we have everything from soda a very traditional toiletries some of these have real newfangled contraptions built into them, but we want to start by talking about green features and things that can
