we begin with snus. with cigarette sales falling, the smoking industry is going smokeless, introducing new tobacco products such as snus that are nothing like your granddaddy's chew or dip. companies like r.j. reynolds and phillip morris say this new generation of smokeless products helps tide smokers over when they go places they can't light up anymore because of smoking bans, like restaurants and offices. the smoking rate is half what it was 40 years ago. and as i discovered in april 2010, companies are investing heavily in developing smokeless and in changing its image from hillbilly to hip. think smokeless tobacco, and you probably conjure up something distinctly unappealing: a bulging mouthful of wet, brown goo that's smelly and spitty... [spitting sounds] brown and drooly. not anymore. now there's snus. >> there's no spitting or anything, so no one knows you're doing it. >> when he does it, when justin billings uses snus, he tucks it, a tiny teabag-like pouch filled with tobacco, discreetly under h

. >> did those surprise snu >> when she said that she came to have, i think the same opinion of french people as she did of people in wisconsin. i think sort of for the same reasons, because wisconsin did not ultimately vote overwhelmingly for john kennedy and the french particularly charles degall was giving her husband a great deal of trouble. so i think you can see the things to some extent as a great test of loyalty. >> there's language in the middle of the account of the cuban missile crisis. she said no day and no night. >> no difference between sleeping and waking. and that was a signal. one of the toughest thing in the sfoer a story and i think you would agree with this, it's to find out what someone truly believes and thinks. and she describes a cuban missile crisis that they were together probably more during that period than perhaps any other time during that presidency. and he would call her and they would go for walks on the lawn, and spend a lot of time together. you were mentioning franklin roosevelt, he admired elenore, but when he needed to be with someone, he would no

. >> finally, if you had to choose one of the mandates, which would you rather per snu. >> pursue? please answer the question. >> you said you had subpoena power? >> ultimately, central banks only control inflation. so obviously price stability is a critical function of central banks. and that provides healthier economy in the long term. that being said in the short term, i think some benefits could be had in terms of supporting a weak recovery like the one we have now. >> i thank both the chairman. >> will you yield for just a moment? >> sure. you referenced specifically 5.2 to 6%. and then talk about focusing on deviations. we have incredible expansion in the monetary base. that's when paying higher interest on reserves must occur to sop up the money supply which is your plan. i would argue this made more complicated now, less certain from us whether that's going to occur on time because what if the employment deviation is greter thgret greater? and with that monetary base running through a system with faster velocity, it's like putting a cruise missile through goal posts. i mean
