hearings of brett kavanaugh which is scheduled to begin september fourth there are calls however being inorganic the role of republicans let's talk about that and more with david jolley former republican representative from florida. what do you make of the democrats calling to hold to the supreme court hearing for kavanaugh until all is blows over. well look strategically larry it is the best argument they've got and they're tool box right now to suggest that this is a president who might be facing some type of legal culpability or liability the recent plea deal by michael cohen might touch on donald trump i think that could be assumed at this point so if you're a democrat opposed to the nomination of kavanagh this is your best argument to the american people to delay it at the end of the day though the votes simply aren't there republicans control the senate and if they stand as a bloc in favor of kavanagh he likely will be confirmed and all this is in the shadow of the merrick garland delay orchestrated by mitch mcconnell i mean you really are seeing a power play by republican senators to cont

>> when we think about growth, we think about organic and inorganic. we listen to our customers. us our great ideas. our most recent acquisition, just in q2, we've seen great success with this already, but we got the idea from our customers. we listen to our customers to drive our innovation strategy. emily: plenty of salesforce acquisition rumors. often we hear twitter come up, that -- is that something that has ever been of interest? >> we listen to our customers. that's a guiding light. they are an inspiration for us. that's how we decide how we innovate, whether it's innovate, whether it's organically or in organically -- inorganically? emily: would you do a deal that big, potentially transformative, but also risky? >> it's been barely 90 days since our biggest acquisition, and we are excited about what we are seeing. emily: what is the actual stat? that's where salesforce has a lot of untapped opportunity. >> we've made a lot of investment over the last five years. amia was 32% growth in the quarter, aipac was 28% growth in the quarter. this is a strategy born out of driving

that levied criticism against apple that if you look over the last ten years, both their r&d and inorganictments have lag years r&d was as low as 2.5% of revenue, it is now 5% of revenue. that's dramatically lower than peers. if you look at acquisitions, apple spent maybe 1% of free cash flow on acquisitions whereas most large tech companies on average spent about 25% of free cash flow on acquisitions i think conceptually and directionally apple could have been investsiing more in the lat ten years. to tim cook's credit, he's dramatically accelerated r&d as i mentioned, it was about 2.5%, now it is 5 plus% -- 5 plus percent of revenue. if you think back in context, apple probably could have or arguably should have spent more both organically and inorganically. looking forward -- >> i was going to ask. >> not to do a deal. >> tony, if you think they should have bought something, what should they have bought >> look, there are many examples where they went into a space, arguably on their own, then changed their minds and bought something. that was the case with streaming music, with beats. t

and as new testing reveals, also common foods that can contain high levels of inorganic arsenic, cadmium adversely affect their proper development. >> longtime exposure to these heavy metals increase it is risk of serious health problems, including cancer, and type 2 diabetes. consumer reports tested 50 products, including baby cereals, packaged fruits and vegetables, packaged entrees, cookies and other snacks commonly fed to infants and toddlers, two-thirds were found to contain arsenic, lead and cadmium above levels associated with health risks, snack foods and producted with rice fared the worse. >> certain plants like rice naturally uptake these heavy elements more so than other plants. >> heavy metals occur naturally in soil and water. don't think buying organic will help. products labeled organic were also just as likely to cane the heavy metals as conventional ones, what can you do to minimize exposure? and protect your child and yourself from dangerous heavy metals? >> just because you've been feeding your children these types of foods doesn't mean that they will necessarily have

"consumer reports" tested for heavy metals including lead, cadmium, and inorganic arsenic and say theyed had at least one heavy metal at levels they considered worrisome and 30% of the products tested raised concern with just one serving or less a day if consumed regularly. they expressed even more concern about snacks and products they tested which contain rice and sweet potatoes which they reported had higher levels of one or more of the heavy metalss they also say their analysis of organic food samples tested just as likely to contain the contaminants. >> our message is balance. as a parent you should not be gravely alarmed by this, but it should be a bit of information that you use to make balanced, concerned choices for your children. >> reporter: "consumer reports'" chief science officer james dickerson says these heavy metals can occur naturally and get absorbed into food from soil or could come from contaminants in the water and equipment used for processing of raw food. and if ingested regularly over time, these elements increase the risk for certain health problems, particula
