the power of earthquakes is determined by what's known as the richter scale. introduced in 1935 by charles richter, a us geologist and physicist, the scale grades the strength of an earthquake from one upwards, with each subsequent unit representing ten times the power of the one before. there is no upper limit. but, so far at any rate, nothing has exceeded 9.6. this was the intensity of the most powerful earthquake ever recorded. it occurred 21 miles under the seabed off the south coast of chile on may 21st 1960 resulting in 2290 deaths and major structural damage. fortunately earthquakes even approaching this magnitude are extremely rare. in fact it is only when they measure 4.5 and upwards that earthquakes pose any real threat. >>steve jobs was many things but he was not a politician. i have the most common type of atrial fibrillation, or afib. it's not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin, but my doctor put me on pradaxa instead to reduce my risk of stroke. in a clinical trial, pradaxa® (dabigatran etexilate mesylate) reduced stroke risk

usually, both on the richter and owners' side, it is most convenient if you find a few people you like -- both on the renter and owner side. it is almost like fractional ownership of a car. secondly, we do community events to bring people together, so you can meet people whose car you could be sharing and you did not actually realized that they could make it available because they list it at their workplace and not their house. those kind of surprises are fun. we are seeing a lot of our members throw little ad hoc things, which is awesome to see. better to have a grass roots than organized by the company. >> that touched on a really interesting thing. i was wondering -- how do cities -- what role do they play in your rollout plans, and how important is community management to the process? let me start with you, jessica. >> for us, we have chosen to launch city by city. we feel that is really important because it lets us take the time needed to build up a great community of people sharing cars. that lets us find great cars, educate the owners, educate the renters, and ensure there is th

so let's make the assumption, today is saturday, an earthquake, magnitude 7.3 on the richter scale has struck 9.45 am this morning. the quake was on the north heyward fault and lasted 10 seconds. 45 minutes later, the city has widespread damage, fire, police and paramedics are overwhelmed by thousands of calls. nert volunteers are gathering in appropriate staging areas. your objective is to set up a command structure and prioritize the incident. what is the first incident you want to respond to and why? what is the second incident you would respond to, and why? you would continue this process until all the incidents have been addressed. and you have to always remember what's the model of the nert program? come on, everyone, let's go. do the most good for the most amount of people. those who pick priority 1, 35 people reported missing or injured. what's the goal of the nert program? let's repeat it again. do the most good for the most amount of people. so, thus, what's the second incident you would go to? 9 elderly people. this is what you have to deal with. once you dealt with people,

. >> brown: for a closer look at all this, we turn to stephan richter, publisher and editor- in-chief of the "globalist," a daily online magazine covering global economics, politics, and culture. elaine sciolino is the paris correspondent for the "new york times" and author of "la seduction: how the french play the game of life." and charles kupchan. he's an expert on the european union as well as us foreign policy at the council on foreign relations. elaine, i wasn't sure how to pronounce the seduction part o f your book but hopefully i got it right. help us first understand what's happened in france. how much of this was a repudiation of sarkozy and how much about austerity? >> well, there were three reasons why sarkozy lost. first he was swept up in this anti-incumbent mood that has overturned so many governments in europe, sort of "kick the bums out." he had come into office promising a rupture, promising change, promising if you work harder you're going to earn more. it obviously didn't happen. so he was a victim of the same ten onnon-that has hit the rest of europe. but the othe
