the british foreign secretary william hague has called for the release of the lockerbie -- has called the release of the lockerbie bomber, al-megrahi, as mistake. he was suffering from cancer and only expected to live another three months. he is still alive. the u.s. has pressed for an investigation into the decision to free him and into allegations that bp lobby for his release. from washington, james reynolds reports. >> here is the problem facing britain and america. al-megrahi is free and not yet dead. the scottish government released him a year ago because the -- doctors said he had three months to live. 11 months have gone by, and he is still alive. al-megrahi is the only man convicted of the bombing of pan am flight 103. 270 people were killed when it exploded over the town of lockerbie. he was jailed for life. which is why his release last year and third so many in britain in america, despite -- angered so many in britain and america. scottish authorities decided to allow him to go home to die in libya. now hillary clinton has spoken to william hague about the growing concern.

here is what has been reported. a trader in these in major offices is alleged to have spent 658 million pounds buying up a large chunk of the world's supply of cocoa. he has brought cocoa prices to a record 32-year price. so will his trade mean we all in the up spending more on our chocolate treats? he says his company has of very carefully-planned strategy. here is our rare interview with the man himself. >> everyone recognizes that the world is growing. food and water is the critical thing. we specialize in this. so we follow the seasons and the crops. we go west to east, east to west. it could be weeks. investing at the wrong time can make a difference up & yield difference. -- a difference of 10% yield difference. >> his intimate knowledge of the weather could have meaning for his purchase. 40% of all cocoa crops and in the world of had a bad harvest. he saw that as an opportunity to jump in and buy a big chunk of the market. it reflects a growing interest by speculative traders in all commodities. just look how

he has failed. i think this is inappropriate system of governance for a multiethnic society such as afghanistan. i think he has not been able to also come up with any offer for the taliban to be... to negotiate over. he wants to negotiate but he hasn't said what he is going to offer them to negotiate for or over. and he needs to articulate what that might be. i think through decentralization government structure in afghanistan which would be far more appropriate for the country, taliban might have an incentive to negotiate with the government, that is, to be able to run their own local communities. in areas where they have support. >> lehrer: mr. dobbins, do you see the same thing that this goes back to just the way it's governed as much as the way... as much as karzai, the way he does it? >> i think the problems the professor outlined are certainly serious problems. i to think they have to be kept in some perspective. there is a serious problem of corruption in the country. on the other hand, this

and the crisis has forced b.p. c.e.o. to step down eleven billion pounds in losses already and force the sale of assets to pay for the cleanup and compensation claims there's now some debate over just how bad the environmental impact will be some scientists believe the facts will be felt for decades while there is some evidence that the leak has been clearing from the surface of the water much faster than expected time magazine's michael grunwald things exaggerating the damage as a way for some to promote their individual a chance that's. just about everybody has called this the worst environmental disaster the u.s. has ever faced and i went down to louisiana last week. assuming that they were right there just doesn't seem to be a lot of evidence for that one of the scientists i talked to this is like a sunburn on a cancer patient so we don't know what we don't know and the long term impacts are certainly impossible to know right now but there's not much evidence of an environmental catastrophes you know the media

it has been a tough 10, 20 years. i have to tell you, some of the greatest innovation and highest quality work is coming from the ground up. if you look back over the last year, one of the most crucial issues that has concerned in this country, health care reform, we really have to say the traditional media let the country down. it has been a significant problem in the country. in many ways, it is not perfect, it is never going to be perfect, but on the other hand, we have a lot of small innovators out there that are thinking -- changing the way that we think about information. i have been running a small website for about six years. the thing that i am finding is technology has shifted under me as well. i have to think hard about how i have to keep up with social media, how you control the rumors, help people establish fiction from fact. >> thank you. denise wagner, what do you tell your students -- i think you oversee 600? 523 journalism students at san francisco state. so how do you talk these days about the qualit

said the ministry spokesman rather has said that . confirmed russia's willingness to jointly with the western partners. realize just the ration of projects here in afghanistan the restoration of social facilities facilities of industrial facilities also recently russia has said it's willing to sell over twenty am i seventeen helicopters to nature meant for the afghan army no those helicopters were designed especially to fly over the mountains so as the country's chief of staff has said himself they would be perfect for the afghan army russia has also said that it's willing to give some of them for free in order to help the country and each of them costs from between thirteen and fifteen million u.s. dollars and that of course will also be very much needed here in afghanistan once the two troops start leaving the country out of one hundred thousand people that die because of drugs coming from afghanistan annually and more than a third of them dies in russia and together with the the e.u. russia consumes about fifty percent of the drugs

it would be hard to identify anyone that has been as much as senator john kerry has. he was intimately involved in and met several times with president karzai around the election and the aftermath of that. he has traveled to both countries. . if your strategy is going to be predicated on 25,000 troops rather than 100,000 troops, that limits your ability to impact that. i think senator kerrey has been a leading voice on this, and our responsibility is to do all the weekend to get this right. -- all that we can to get this right. we have mostly meetings that will happen this thursday. >> we go live to the u.s. house. jection, so ordered. pursuant to clause 8 of rule 20, proceedings will resume on motions to suspend the rules previously postponed. votes will be taken in the following order. the release of 5 million diplomatic reports on the website on u.s. operations in afghanistan. they called them irresponsible and said it would put the lives of americans at risk. first, an update on what is happening on capitol hill. house democrats are hoping to see the final week of

it has this report. democracy but only on our terms that seems to be the message coming from the powers that be in the u.k. capital as a peace camp is finally removed from the government's doorstep as dozens of bailiffs and police sweeps to clear out the campaign as london's mayor said the demonstrators were making a mess and stopping the public from enjoying parliament square but the protesters insist their crucial message is being muted i would like to see. primarily. the aggressive foreign policy its government has been pursuing for such a long time going back through. to see. states . they've been resident in this focal spot in westminster since just before may's general election mainly calling for an end to the war in afghanistan but adopting other peace causes along the way it also became a magnet for all sorts of people including anna a teacher who gave up her job and her apartment to join the demonstration i'm here mostly because i met. about the rules of war which covers. me. within the law and

a nuclear state has you know has a proper air force i don't think there's any way the u.s. could be looking to take the war into pakistan what they can do and in fact what they have been doing with the help of the indians is continue to destabilize pakistan through through afghanistan which which has been the case for the past year or so whether you look at fatah or you look at the sun i think the only thing left to do for the us now is this has this probably will end and up like you know we had there they should really packing up the bags and you know looking for an exit. son needs to do right now it's to work with china work with the regional powers such as iran with saudi arabia and in trying to come up with. you know preparing itself for afghanistan which is you know after us basically and you know how they're going to pick up the pieces and make it work then well you're close to my heart because that's been my theme for a very long time now if i go back to washington. again there are people are saying that you know the root of all of this problem the safe havens the mo

graham has dropped out.ut kerrey and lieberman are working on is a much more narrow version of the bill which would make the supply to electric power plants only. host: what are the chances that this would get done before this part of the term and before the senators go home for the august recess? guest: in the senate, they want to get some form of energy built on the floor by the break. some of this would relate to the gulf of oil -- gulf of mexico oil spill so there is toughening of energy standards for oil rigs and increasing liability limits. those are things they will put in there. then there is a suite of other things that steer clear of these greenhouse gas limits but would still fall under the general heading of clean energy provisions and energy-saving provisions, things that incentivize, wind, solar, alternative transportation fuels, to try and dial back the use on oil. all that looks like it will show up in some form. what is less clear is whether there is anything approaching 60 votes for a clima

>> he has very limited authority. congress gave him the ability to go back and look and look at the payments that were inconsistent with the public interest. he didn't designate any of these as being inconsistent in part because there were no rules applying at that time. so the banks were making huge payouts but they were allowed to. secondly a lot of these firms, most of the big one, goldman, j.p. morgan, morgan stanley they paid back the t.a.r.p. funds so he has little leverage to say give us the money back because they'll say back to him, we already did. >> a lot of the banks that did pay back the t.a.r.p. money, some of them made presentpy -- pretty clear they were doing it to avoid the pay strictures. >> oh, yeah, they made no bones about it. the banks immediately contacted treasury and said we want out. i mean, some of the banks couldn't get out, b & a and citi, they had problems and they had to stay in. but some of the others couldn't live under the strictures. >> now ken feinberg didn't name any particular nam

has the religion of islam turned into a source of fear in the us while the american media has been doing a heck of a job if you will in phobias to me that you are not. working with our enemies have had enough of some of bin laden became the poster boy for all muslims or a billion muslims in the world this one guy symbolized all those all muslims for most americans because americans are so politically an educated unaware of what's going on in the rest of the world our t.v. doesn't report it our schools don't teach about it elitist estimate from the council of american islamic relations says there are seven million muslims currently living in the us there are no exact numbers available however the american census bureau does not collect data on religious identification but this identifying yourself with a religion or rather standing behind it is exactly what seems to have been spreading paranoia across the united states islamophobia as a term became commonly used in the us only after the attacks of september eleventh that racism is alive and kicking with its main focus now on muslims i thi

we know that employment has been weak. and one reason why is that companies, when they meet their sales targets are doing it by making their workers more productive rather than hiring more. the other thing especially true today with companies like caterpillar and ups is the strong sales are not in the u.s. you but if places like china and india. the bottom line is the market is doing well but that is not necessarily a great sign for the economy. over the last month, even though we had a good day today t only kind of like takes us back to where we were, you know, a few weeks ago. it's basically one step forward, one step back. the market overall is telling us that it a sluggish outlook for the u.s. economy. >> lehrer: and so when the market goes up like that, it's always a mistake to read that as anything other than the fact that the market went up today, is that right. >> that's right. that the sellers had less convictions than the buyers today. you kind of have to watch the trends over time. i mean, the encouraging thing

[applause] the issue of access has been that which has led almost all the work that i have done in myife. access for my patients, which i have been privileged to have the opportunity to serve, access for our community, from which we have been able to develop a program that has brought what i hope will be quality care in a culturally competent manner before they even thought about such standards, and access on the national level. it continues to be part of my passion. it sounds like i should be retiring, and i am going to bring this to my membership. it is really time to do that, but i really do want to thank the physicians of our community who particularly had understood the need to not only serve our patients, but because we have a unique opportunity to speak on behalf of chinese and asian health issues to over 20 years ago actually believe that not only should we then develop systems to do that, but we need to seek it out on not only our local, but a national level, and they have allowed me and our colleagues opportunities to do that. once again, that is the heritage part. we are lo

it has gotten worse.r muslim population has remained very different from the muslim population of the united kingdom. they remain far better integrated, far more successful socioeconomically, far less isolated, far more involved in u.s. politics, are less concerned with overseas politics. we have some warning signs in some communities. the community challenge -- and i want to stress that the vast majority of small-americans are absolutely the most wonderful, -- somali -- americans are absolutely the most wonderful, hard-working americans you could imagine. i cannot stress that enough. there is a volley -- there is a very small subsection of the population which tends to be isolated, not as social anomaly -- socioeconomically advantaged. many of those somalian-americans have returned to fight in somalia. that is problematic. let me rephrase that -- i am sorry i said it that way. small segments of that community are worrisome to the community is part of the solution. -- are worrisome. the community is part

clearly this has something that has received a lot of attention in the last few months.i do think it's unfortunate that there is no one here from the mayor's office to present this item given that the mayor is the one who will be putting this item on the ballot. there are two things i will say about this item. one, i recognize that there are concerns that a number of individuals throughout the city, but especially in the neighborhood have expressed and that it is those concerns that are the impetus for this legislation. the need to do something. do we have here mr. king? so we do have someone from the mayor's office. >> yes, i do i'm a little out of breath from running over from the last building. chairman campos: items are called out of order all the time, so. >> so, some folks may wonder why we're here on this issue since it has been heard before. i'll briefly explain. back in 2007 voters passed proposition c which amended our charter to require public notice of items before they were placed on the ballot so that nothing would be placed there at the last minute. this h

that has been strong. that suggests that at some point workers will start to bring back other workers. >> as you have said, we are trending in the right direction. are there any further indicators that overall job gains will continue in e coming months, besides the temporary help and the six months of job gains in manufacturing? >> i think one of the more encouraging things -- this month the manufacturing work hours declined. that is not a good sign. prior to that, there had been a pretty steady rise in manufacturing work hours. that is generally a leading indicator as well. >> i would like to ask you about the gulf region. have you done any analysis on the impact of the disaster on jobs in that region? are you tracking that? >> we are starting to do some tabulations on that. we are probablnot going to be able to simply identify what has been the effect of the oil spill, but we will probably have some nice tabulation that will show you the areas that could be affected. in terms of overall job impact this i

that has already been met. that's why i said in my statement while often there are setbacks and discouragements you shouldn't listen to the bad news. sometimes there is good news that we ought to be able to comment and recognize as a part of the balance here and presenting what is going. but, of course, quality is important. that is important with some of the training that is ongoing and the embedded partnering that is at the heart of the forces over the coming months and years. he quite rightly pointed to the low level of army in south pastun people. that is a long running problem as he knows and not easily solved as part one day of a wider political settlement in support across afghanistan for the basis of governance and authority. and so that is not something that can be solved overnight. but the buildup of the afghan national army is so far one of the success stories taking place in afghanistan. on the question ofegional cooperation, yes, we have been, of course, discussing that at the conference and raised

it has been really a mess. he has been extremely difficult to work with. it looks like maybe there is one person causing the problems, and it is not. i hope this can be resolved, thank you. president peterson: thank you. is there any other public comment? seeing none, we will move into rebuttal. ms. wuerfel, you have three minutes. >> thank you. the plans call to have a complete replacement of all of the roofing materials. by definition, the rafter tales -- tails are going to go. and the plans have not been seen after the adjustments were made. the history of the relationship started to become an unpleasant, shall we say, when there were changes in the plan by changing architects. we had agreed to in the meeting in 2006, by the time we came back in 2007 for the meeting, there was a brand new set of plans of "this is where we're going to go." when we tried to continue to work through our issues, there was no way to have this done because the owner did not want to talk about it. we would like to resolve these issues. the reason there are some of complaints i

a team here has reported concerns. it has asked spain's high court to have the train line at rerouted away from the church. >> this building is a world heritage monument. the tunnel runs just 1.5 meters from the church and the subsoil is very unstable. we tried to get the project changed but nobody listened. now we are waiting for the courts to decide. of the tunneling work is getting closer by the day. >> it is partly the sheer scale and weight of this that concerns people. something you can best appreciate by going to the top. with tunnelling and trains down below, architects were about vibration. the church will be even taller when it is finished. they say the rail link is vital to our solana -- is vital to barcelona. >> once we decided this was the only viable way, we work to ensure the maximum possible safety, not only for the monument both for all the buildings. we are using the most modern technology to avoid and a damaged. we think the conditions of the best and guarantee total safety. >> the tourists are not c

dieter has been on the job for almost 50 years.he worked on the farm and stayed on when it became a business. >> back in 1978 i started and i have been doing it every year since. it is fun. a lot of things have become easier. there is air conditioning, and the machinery does not break down as much. i have seen a lot of improvements. >> what also makes the job a lot easier for the driver is that the work is not weighed down by the ideological balance of social agriculture. -- ideological battle lasballasl agriculture pyridoxin. collective farms like this were once low on productivity, the machinery was out of date and the work force was too big. 500 people used to work on this land. the business that emerged from the communist farm employs just 40 people and produces just as much food. the manager started working here in 1988. in the mid-1990s his efforts to stave to the -- save the business from bankruptcy. he then became a part owner. but a lot of jobs were lost in the process. of >> the main product we had was carrots. 10 tons we
