>> absolutely not, hari. the problem with all this is that it is a very complicated process.inning with the fafsa, in fact, which is often harder than filling your tax, the fafsa helps determine the expected family contribution. and many people think that that whole formula is out of whack and a formula set by congress. it is out of back because if you look at a family with $100,000 income, that family is expected to contribute about $1500 a month every month for four years. that's a lot of money. now when it comes to institutional aid, i mean that only constitutes about 5%, maybe only 8% of what student does get. the bullable of the financial aid out there is coming from the federal government, about 37%. the rest does come from institutional aid, and you know, it's very difficult for families to navigate this system. it's very difficult for families to dig through the information. there is a lot of pressure on institutions these days, from the president on down, to become a more transparent and to offer more consumer-friendly information for families. but that is not happen

hari joins us again from our new york studio for this appreciation. >> sreenivasan: his poetic wordsnd longing, fantasy and fatalism, and worldwide admiration. gabriel garcia marquez was the most popular spanish-language author since miguel de cervantes in the 17th century, outselling all other spanish literature except the bible. his novels and short stories exposed millions to latin american life, and to "magical realism", a style he discussed in an interview some years ago. >> ( translated ): i lived in a supernatural world, a fantastic world where everything was possible, where the most wonderful things were just daily things. >> sreenivasan: garcia marquez first gained fame with the epic novel "one hundred years of solitude," published in 1967. it sold more than 50 million copies worldwide. his birthplace in colombia, the small town of aracataca, was the inspiration for the village depicted in the book. biographer gerald martin. >> ( translated ): the colombian government created a system of national high schools and scholarships for disadvantaged students. garcia marquez won a

>> good evening, hari. yes, two things really jump out. one is people talk about experiencing a black hole. they are applying online, putting in tremendous effort to find a job and getting no responses. this, i think, is partly a result of discrimination against people who are long-term unemployed by virtue of the duration of their unemployment. i can say more about that, but there's another experience that's really important, which is just a toll on one's sense of self, the emotional experience of looking for work for month after month and not finding it. many people tend to start to doubt themselves, to have the experience of self-blame, despite the fact we're still in unprecedented territories since the great depression for long-term unemployment, it's easy to lose sight of that and to feel that it's something you're doing. and this is a particularly american white-collar phenomenon, that's what my recent book focused on, looking at how, when you're trying to avoid the black hole and, instead, networking, this becomes a highly personali

hari sreenivasan in our new york studio has a fuller look at why it's exciting astronomers. >> reporter: it was discovered by the kepler space telescope. and as shown in this animation, it's said to be in a so-called "goldilocks zone," where it's not too far from its sun. "kepler-186" and its temperatures could be just the right environment to allow liquid water to flow on its surface. tom barclay is part of the nasa team and with the bay area environmental research institute. he joins us from mountain view, california. similiar characters to earth. green house gases and liquid water. both those are rocky. both those are rocky. so we deduced that both planets might be rocky. 40% bigger than rock. significant amount of water around that surface. gravity is going to be much higher. they may be hotter inside without a core, mantle and crust. >> so this planet orbits a star. this star also reveals less starlight than we receive from the sun. it'll be a bit dimmer on the surface. similar illumination to our sunset. more orange, more red, less blue light to scatter so the ocean's duller. ice

hari sreenivasan gets a breakdown on what you need to know. >> sreenivasan: essentially, heartbleed can be used to read the memory of computer servers. the places behind a website that store your information, including the lock and key system which protects your usernames and passwords. you probably see this encryption in the form of a green lock when you conduct a transaction and exchange information. the breach was revealed this week but apparently has existed for a long time. russell brandom of "the verge," an online site covering tech news, is here to help explain. how significant is this breach? what can hackers do? >> all those i talked to were running out of, like, extreme language to talk about. catastrophic. bruce schneider said on a scale of one to 10, this was an 11. unlike anything we have seen. part of what's so unnerving about it is we don't really know how much anyone got. when used on a server, it will spit back a little chunk of memory of whatever is in the working memory of the server, so what's in the random chunk? we don't know. it's a little likephishing. but there

hari sreenivasan has more. >> sreenivasan: to help us understand what's behind the surge in attacks and the nigerian government's ability to respond, i'm joined by jennifer cooke, director of the africa program at the center for strategic and international studies. who is behind this recent rash of violence and why the uptick? >> well, the islamist group that was originally based in northeast is likely responsible for the bus attack on monday, certainly for the kidnappings and the 'tax today. this is a violent group that began as fairly small sect in the northeast of nigeria, very remote state that expanded its tax particular, its targets, initially against security forces and police now against civilians, school children, against ordinary citizens in the capital of abuja as well as the states within the stronghold. i think after a lull, the leadership of? what fractured last summer and weakened. clearly come back, is making a statement that it's still very much on the scene. this is particularly frightening as nigeria set toe host the world economic forum in the coming months and is en

hari sreenivasan picks up on that and the specific concerns in tech and biotech. >> sreenivasan: for that, i am joined by hugh johnson, a market analyst who runs his own investment management firm. first off, what's happening with these tech stocks and maybe more specifically the biotech ones? >> well, if you take a look at market history, you know, what we've had more recently, as judy suggested, is right on, and that is we've gone a long period -- you remember 2013, the market up 30%, nobody expected that. that's a long time for the market to be going up without an adjustment or correction. so i think this all a starts with the basic sort of common-sense perception that this has got to be at least a correction in an ongoing bull market. now, it's a little bit more than that because, you know, if you have stocks going up a straight line, basically, as they did in 2013, they're going to reach levels that are arguably very overvalued and i think this starts really as a valuation issue. really, the prices of stocks got the levels that did not reflect underlying fundamentals, reflected
