ofcom has also opened a probe into a show aired by itv last week. it disclosed a list of individuals allegedly linked to child abuse. the bbc and itv both say they'll accept the investigations and apologize to the relevant parties. but the scandals are fueling criticism of british media and its reporting methods. >>> japanese researchers are helping to build a stronger heart. they used induced stem cells that can develop into any type of body tissue. scientists have considered glucose to be necessary in cultivating heart muscle. a team from ko university challenged that notion. they removed all glucose from their cultures and replaced it with lactic acid and found almost all the cells except those from the heart muscle died of malnutrition. the researchers used the culture to grow heart muscle cells from ips cells and succeeded in improving the purity to 98% within a week. then they transplanted the culture of the cells into a mouse. they didn't find any abnormalities. >> translator: we believe we can overcome one of the hurdles to regenerate the he

and so he did this one for itv. it is airing later in december and it's for charity. but just think if you had no idea what was going on and you saw this? >> christmas is one of my favorite holidays. if i saw that, i would have jumped in and i would have started fighting with this guy. i would have been like -- >> and that's what made me think it was fake. because i don't care how sweet and nice of a caroller you are, if somebody comes in and smashes an instrument and ruined the parade, one of the carollers is going to jum thp guy. >> it got me. it got me. >> the holidays are upon us. of course, the videos are rolling in of incredible house light displays. this one is set to "joy to the world." >> are you kidding me? >> candy cane light show. ♪ joy to the world >> oh, my goodness! >> that's incredible! >> this is the home of mike cole in coeur d'alene, idaho. he has 60,000 lights on his house! he has a transmitter set up so that the music transmitts to the cars of the passer's buy so only they are hearing the music. >> how do the lights blink to the song and they do a

and itv which many people are pinning next year's growth on needs the cooperation of cable operatorspull off. the cable operators are doing very well. they're powerful. unlike the music companies that steve jobs rolled for itunes. cook's not a bully like jobs. so it's hard to believe the cable companies will give control of the cable box to apple which i think it needs to have itv. that means 2013 may not have products of consequence. however, 2013 will simply have enough in it courtesy of the fiscal cliff's revision in capital gains taxes to make the stock go lower. if the taxes on your gains in apple double next year, it could be much better to sell now than to sell later. now i have a nontaxable account. i still sold a lot of the stock for my charitable trust after listening to isaacson. i couldn't act on it immediately because of my trading restrictions. i never pride myself on calling the exact top in the stock. apple was way too big a position versus everything else because of a high quality problem. so we took some off the table. that said, if you think the fiscal cliff is goi

itv news in london talked to her and she explained her injuries. >> i had a migraine. my teeth hurt because they were chipped and i couldn't talk. >> it was amazing that her injuries were minor. she had some chipped teeth, some bruising, but no major injuries. reports say that she did notice the man when she walked out of her home and it sounds like he followed her about 500 meters before the attack in front of the surveillance camera happened. >> did she even know that she was hit? >> in the interview she said she woke up in the ambulance and had no idea what happened. she was apparently walking to school and this happened as she was on her way there. >>> you know what, i show you guys these videos with the time and day stamp on the bottom from a car. it's never going to end come. steven, you always say it, people seem to be going a little bit too fast. >> oh! >> you could see that accident coming a mile down the road. the white car in my opinion is at fault because it doesn't seem to make a left without bothering to see if anybody is coming. anyway, it's like you're

moved here only a couple months after i got here i was accuweatherly able to sell my car and get rid itv because of the transportation options available here in the city particularly because of the car sharing program. * actually so, i think having a really good mix of transportation options in the city is really, really key to having a good city. and i think that the renter car share programs are awesome, but different from the one way trip car sharing program. i was recently in portland and got to use car to go for the first time it was a great experience. partially because of the way the billing works. it's done by mile a minute as opposed to others like zip car or city car share where we do it by the hour or by the day. instead of being a lot more economical, i think it's something like $7 in portland having to use car to go three times. overall, about the economical mix of transportation offer, it's really good. just having things like private shuttles or car sharing programs or muni and biking, you know, help. [speaker not understood]. thank you. >> thank you. are there any other s

it's itv. itv requires cable. you waited a year, isaacson. use the conversation to be able to say itv was supposed to be 2013. i just don't see cable companies caving. i think that matters. there's a lot of people who want it. >> you hear about 800 pound gorillas. they tend not to make them that big if you know what i mean. we're still analyzing the recovery of sandy. east coast looking to recover from superstorm sandy. in new york city, more of the transit systems are being restored. most schools are open. there's still about 1.5 million outages in the states hit by sandy as colder temperatures now hit the region. the lines at the gas stations continue to be long as you have no doubt seen over the weekend and we should point out it will get cold. it's going to get stormy. there's a nor'easter on the way to this part of the country coming wednesday, thursday. it's going to make recovery even more difficult. >> just what we need. >> now there's some discussion in the "times" about impact on retailers. ports are disabled to some degree. warehou

itv says sell until otherwise. i need to see something from apple that says, you have no idea what we have in the pipe. because they say there's nothing. >> man. it's hard to imagine this conversation three months ago. >> there it is. terrific guy. but because this was the kickoff of the -- i wanted to interview him for the fund drive and love the school. my friend's a professor of business and i was just, oh, i sat back after no omg. i said omg. >> all right. let's check on bob pisani on the floor with more. >> hello. happy thursday, everybody. a lot calmer on the overnight. mr. draghi didn't say anything too controversial or market moving today. the worry for stocks right now, the general anxiety on the floor. additional sell on capital gains worry and there's a lot of questions about how long it's going to take. we need the address this soon and the capital gains from 15% to 20%. not so bad. 15% to 43% is a catastrophe and the uncertain is gnawing at people. make a deal sooner rather than later. people trying to

if you put up the itv, you can buy the home builders as an exchange traded fund.tocks. we're talking about a 60% move up. we are just fractionally off of the highs. no real technical rollover, nothing is falling apart even though we're having not a good day today. homebuilders have been one of the great performers for the whole year. >> and for the broad economy, too. >> the problem is they're like the airlines. very small group with not a lot of money in the group overall. you get a lot of big piles. that's why you've got 60%. >> good stuff. thanks, bob. >>> brian shactman has got a market flash on sony this time, brian. >> "skyfall" not preventing the stock from falling. it produced "skyfall," made about half a billion globally. not stemming the bleeding on the stock now down more than 40% for the year. back to you. >> thanks so much. zblrjts when we come back, a millionaire who is asking congress to please raise my taxes. a member of the patriotic millionaires organization will join us to explain his position. >>> later on, do you like to knit? do you like to m

re itve other problems whethe runs into problems on the hill because of criticism of the budget or theoversight. what do you see in the next four years in terms of those challenges? what is realistic? >> i wanted to follow up on what he said. it is so important. the digital outreach team is an effort that you alluded to. they insert themselves to chat rooms that are not favorable to the policy. most domestic not wish to tread. the problem i have with the concept of diplomacy is that oftentimes you cannot just be posing press releases on new twitter account. it cannot be a projection. you have to spend the time to respond to people. time is personnel. sometimes i think the department falls into this trap. they want to engage in a conversation. they do not just want to read online what they can see on television. it can be a trap of social media. it takes person power to do that. it is a generational thing. they are going to understand better how to use that. the key will be have you really used to shake foreign-policy? the needs to be the realization that it cannot just be pushing uff.
