host of the conversation with tony katz on p.j. t.v. dot com ryan told me he thinks the ultra right are using all the right code words to stir up fear but the religious we profiled people not because of something they've done because of how they look or what they pray to or because of the color of their skin or from their ethnic identity if you protest against it if you say that that's this criminalization of that's terribly but that's kind of a hysteria in jena phobic approach then you're accused of political correctness now these are the cold words of the old to right now in america there's a great danger that people face what is a danger they can't find jobs they're losing their homes there's high unemployment there's growing poverty peter king those engage in the politics of diversion like many of the other republicans let's look for an enemy when the real threat the people have is something quite different and yet this becomes a convenient scapegoating as it has throughout history tony is this the politics of diversion here. i

david katz is one of the skeptics. >> i think the notion that hcg even could help burn body fat was farfetchedin with and i'm not sure how anyone came up with it. but we see no evidence whatsoever in research of it that it me forms this function. >> you can lose weight but it's the type of weight loss that quickly comes back as soon as you go off the plan. >> you inject yourself daily with hcg, which is a pregnancy hormone, and then you eat one meal a day that's 500 calories. so, if people are losing weight on this diet, clearly it's because they're only eating 500 calories a day. >> reporter: of course, that would explain any short-term dramatic weight loss. on 500 calories a day, it's like you're starving yourself. so, leading dietitians have dubbed it the starvation diet. >> this is a prime example of starvation diets. you're talking 500 to 800 calories a day. no one should be on such a low calorie diet without medical sup supervision. and there is a tsunami of information when it comes to diets, but guess what? with the hcg diet, it is misinformation. >> reporter: the doctors and nutrition

for more, let's welcome in andy katz. why is tennessee a good fit for cuonzo martin? >> well, cindy, i have to refute a little of that from cuonzo. because there's really no way of him knowing. they just have no way of knowing what the committee on infractions is going to do to tennessee in june. they're anticipating that it's going to be directed much more at bruce pearl because they fired him in advance, so they're hoping that more of the penalty is sticking to him and his staff. a lot of these times, that's what the schools do. they try to get rid of the players involved and hope that the ncaa will come down a little less lenient. in talking to a number of people that have been on the committee of infractions, they can see the transparency in that. so i think it's a little premature for him to say that and for the a.d. to say that because they don't know. there could be some sort of institutional penalty, loss of scholarships that still could come down on tennessee. but as for martin, he did do a great job in missouri state the last three seasons. very well respect

i know commissioner katz was not here for the last presentation, so we are going to cover a little more ground for you. i apologize for that and we will chided go as quickly as possible. an overview of the site to familiarize you with it, pier 27, you can see on the image here, is the long shed, which is a non-historic structure, which will be demolished. in the center of the triangle is what we refer to as the valley, which will become the ground transportation area. adjacent to that is pier 27, which will be partially demolished -- no, pier 29, sorry, which will be partially demolished by the america's cup a story. that results in this site plan here, which you can see for the schematic design. the front of the site is removed and dedicated to the northeast whorf plaza -- wharf plaza. in the center of this site, the ground transportation area, which we will talk more about before we proceed. the terminal, you can see, locates itself on this side in relation to the ships, so there has been a great deal of analysis of the different vessels that call at port and careful positioning of th

today i'm talking to robert patterson who's an associate fellow at katz and house and author of the or fell of a book on the power industry called keeping the lights on well pass and thank you very much for talking to r.t. now the situation in japan is bad we've seen several explosions at fukushima nuclear power plant what do you think the chances are that we may see more and the situation herring are i'm sure that the people working on the site hope that they've got it under control but they seem to be releasing an awful lot of hydrogen from at least three reactors and now from a fuel point as well and hydrogen is an explosive gas if it's confined mixed with air it produces it can produce very dramatic explosions as we've seen so that's clearly a major concern for them but i think the explosion problem is almost the least of their problems at the moment because what it has done to the reactors we don't know we don't know who hasn't apparently damaged the containment or the reactor pressure vessels themselves although i gather there may be a hole in one of the containment some in that

katz. >> good afternoon, chairman mchenry. chairman platts, ranking member quigley, ranking member towns, members of the two subcommittees, it really is an honor to be invited to testify in the operation of the securities and exchange commission today. it's a matter of great interest and importance to me personally because for most of my career i was an employee of the sec. for 20 of those years i served as the commission's secretary which was one of those unusual positions that afforded me a rare opportunity to participate firsthand in virtually every aspect of the commission's responsibilities. i retired from the commission in january of 2006, and in the five intervening years, i've really been fortunate. i've served as a technical adviser to a variety of securities commissions in the governments and emerging market countries, and i've also had the opportunity to speak and write about financial regulation in the u.s. in 2008 the center for capital market competitiveness at the u.s. chamber of commerce invited me to conduct a
