the ecology of violence in this culture breeds this kind of random assault upon the targets that are available when somebody gets pissed off, mad at work, but schoolchildren, especially, even more you think about synagogues, churches, and temples, which have been the victim where we've seen victims mowed down, but the school is the national, if you will, altar of our collective civic consciousness. everybody doesn't go to church. everybody goes to school, or mostly everybody does. this is where our national vult meets the widest possible population of americans, and it does say that we feel out of control. we don't know how to control it. we talk about it, but we can do some things. that is, talk about gun violence. talk about the ready accessibility to those guns and how those guns are distributed, how it's easier to get a gun license than it is to vote. that's the reality of america, and we have to be honest about it. >> your assessment in the situation when you first heard about it, in terms of both the political side, the gun control question, the institutional side, the failure

having a bestseller benefitted all the employees at random house publishing this year. according to abc news, due to the wildly successful novel "50 shades of grey," publisher random house is giving all of its employees an over $5000 bonus this holiday season. still to come, gas prices are tanking. a check on what's happening with prices at the pump during the holidays, later on. but first - is the latest round of unemployment data necessarily good news for the economy? bill moller explains - next, after this "in the know" message. it's called the labor report - the monthly numbers from the labor department. they are released on the first friday on the month. it's not just a number, but a collection of sometimes contradictory data. the numbers for november are now out. everybody is now chewing over them. let's talk with brent schutte. he is the market strategist for bmo global asset management. the two main numbers, jobs created and the unemployment rate, would certainly seem to be good news. but what is the interpretation as to the overall picture? > > sure. i think th

public nudity is no longer random and sporadic, or occasional part of san francisco and in the castro it's seven days a week. everyday where people live, play and conduct their lives. to be very clear despite some of the press coverage this is not about cock rings but that maybe the extreme example but it's not the heart of the issue and seven days a week and almost always men stand at out displaying their gentles of anyone walking or driving by. the situation in the castro which has been extreme developed around the time i took office. there were immediate calls on me to ban it. i resisted those calls for almost two years and took significant heat from some quarters for that delay because it's not what i wanted to do. i didn't want to do legislation restricting public nudity, because although i have disagreements with the proponents of legislation i understand and respect their view. i hoped and assumed and believed as others this would run its course and we will return to the way it was in san francisco and public nudity being random and occasional thing on our streets, but the situ

lawsuit coming to head in april when the department of justice sued the largest publishers except random house for colluding on the e-books prices for the agency model. the publishers that the price is not the retailer. barnes & noble and amazon could set their own prices before that. the department of justice did not like that. harpercollins settled now we finally see fluctuation of the publishers e-books prices. apple, penguin and macmillan will fight the suit a trial is said june 2013. of the case is ongoing. there has been legal maneuverings and is a settlement all states except minnesota. $69 million will be allocated to give back to customers who felt they paid too high of the price. >> is the $9.99 e-books coming back? >> that was a policy. amazon was shifting prices lower and lower publishers about they cannot make profit. best other model enabled them to make profits. if you look at the earnings reports throughout the year where e-books contributed a healthy bottom line. but another major publishing story was a merger between random house and penguin how that will come about the
