ray suarez has the story. >> suarez: across europe and on wall street this week, markets have had the jitters over italy's failing financial health. but today in rome, italian finance minister giulio tremonti sought to calm the fears. he announced plans to strengthen a $57 billion austerity package and speed it through parliament. >> ( translated ): the decree to balance the budget will be reinforced for the entire four- year period, and will be approved by friday. >> suarez: until now, europe's debt fears had been focused primarily on portugal, ireland, greece and spain-- all, countries in economic crisis. italy was originally not a worry with its relatively sound banks and lack of speculation in a housing bubble. now, the eurozone debt contagion has spread. there's concern about italy's high debt and slow growth, and political dysfunction between prime minister silvio berlusconi and his long-time rival finance minister tremonti. a bailout seems out of the question. italy has the world's eighth largest economy, so a rescue would be far tooostly. as a result, the head of the european

ray suarez has our story. >> suarez: the vaet can's move to recall his ambassador was highly unusual. the archbishop was summoned back to the church's headquarters after the irish prime minister sharply denounced the way the vatican dealt with repeated child sex abuse scandals. ireland is 87% catholic. in an attack on the church unprecedented for an irish prime minister, he told his parliament the rape and torture of children were downplayed or managed to uphold instead the primacy of the institution in power, standing and reputation. his comments come on the heels of a judicial report released two weeks ago which revealed the vatican secretly discouraged irish bishops from reporting pedophile priests to police as was demanded by the dublin government. the report also suggested the diocese of county cork failed to act on the allegations against 19 priests between 1996 and 2009. the vatican says archbishop, also known as the papal nunzio, was recalled to help prepare an official response to irish complaints. but in a statement the holy see said its action denotes the seriousness of the

ray suarez has that story. >> suarez: he was once bound for the baseball hall of fame, but today, roger clemens entered a federal courthouse in washington accused of lying to congress. in sworn testimony at a house hearing in 2008, the former pitching great was unequivocal on the subject of steroid use. >> let me be clear: i have never taken steroids or h.g.h." >> suarez: but a former trainer- - brian mcnamee-- claimed he repeatedly injected clemens with steroids and human growth hormone. and last year, the retired star was indicted on multiple counts. it was a spectacular fall for the man known as "the rocket" for his sizzling fastball, who won a record seven cy young awards as the american league's top pitcher. he played 13 seasons with the boston red sox and won two world series with the new york yankees. now, clemens is now fighting to stay out of jail. the counts face possible sentences up to 30 years. more now on the trial and the clemens story, from david epstein who's covering it for "sports illustrated." well, there were six counts in all, david. what does the government say ro

ray suarez has the story. >> suarez: the numbers are astounding. companies and individual investors are paying billions of dollars for the next generation of tech enterprises, and often, the valuations dwarf the revenues. microsoft bought skype, for $8.5 billion earlier this year. skype's revenues are less than a billion dollars annually. when linked-in went public, it was initially valued at $9 billion. its current profit: just $12 million a year. there's talk of facebook selling for more than $75 billion next year. along with the excitement, there are cautionary tales, too. myspace, the social networking site, sold yesterday for just $35 million, after it was expected to fetch $100 million at auction. six years ago, newscorp bought it for $580 million. we look more closely at all this with jessi hempel who follows the tech world for "fortune" magazine. and josh bernoff, a senior vice president at forrester research and the author of two books on social media. josh bernoff, let's start with you. are we watching the inflation of tech bubble 2? >> i

this country. >> ifill: thank you so much. >> good to be here, gwen. >> brown: next, part two of ray suarez's reports from indonesia. tonight: the rapidly developing economy and growing pains of this sprawling southeast asian nation. >> suarez: 240 million people living on 6,000 islands strung along the equator; an old, complex culture melding influences from across asia. they belong to hundreds of ethnic groups, speak hundreds of languages, and make up the largest muslim population of any country in the world. after years of fast economic growth, indonesia now has one of the 20 largest economies in the world. but think-- how often does this huge, dazzlingly diverse, increasingly wealthy place break through onto the world's news agenda? not often. there have been terrorist bombings of western-related targets-- hotels in the capital, jakarta, and on the island of bali; the tsunami in the western province of aceh; indonesia's and in the '90s, rising resistance to the decades-lon rule of president suharto, whose departure paved the way for democracy and reform. in fact, many people now point to

the scale of this crisis with millions of somalis beyond the reach of anyone's help. >> lehrer: ray suarez has more on the growing humanitarian crisis in the horn of africa. >> suarez: and for that we turn to jeremy konyndyk, policy director for mercy corps, which has approximately 50 to 100 people doing relief and development work in somalia. he was last there in april. and peter pham is the director of the africa center at the atlantic council. jeremy konyndyk, the conditions that we just saw in somalia don't happen overnight. how long have the problems leading up to a u.n. declaration of famine been being up in somalia? >> by the time it gets to the point of declaring famine there's been a whole process of degradation of the economy, of people's ability to support themselves, of resources that have occurred and grown and grown to the point where basically the ability of many, many somalies, of about 11 million people across the entire region because we need to remember that ethiopia, an kenya are also suffering similar conditions it gets to the point where those 11 million people search
