for analysis we spoke to ethan harris, head of north american economics at bank of america merrill lynch global research. >> i think the strength in the yen versus the dollar reflects three things. first, clearly u.s. data has weakened a lot, and i think that's causing investors to pull away from the dollar a bit. second, i think the fed seems much more than many thought so there's expectations that the interest rates could come down further in the u.s. that's also weakened the dollar. then finally i think there's a lot of talk about china redeploying some of its reserves into the yen and out of dollars. and that's probably helped support the yen and hurt the dollar. i don't think this is a big shock to the u.s. economy. i think on the margin a weakness in the dollar is good for the u.s. economy. but the movement we've seen from the u.s. perspective, you know, really doesn't change the outlook for the u.s. we are still in a very weak growth picture for the united states. >> that was ethan harris, head of north america economics at bank of america merrill lynch global research. >>> now, l

but when you get to the interior of north america, this is for summer, the temperature rise is in excess of five celsius and colorado does not look very good, naturally in those terms. so, what this suggests - and more than one model shows the same kind of behavior and i'll show you : tha. but this is a transit of southern california showing you the temperature rise across this area, and you see this tremendous gradient of temperature increase as you get in land. of course, that has a profound influence - or would have on all sorts of things including probably water, eco systems, forest fires, human health, all sorts of issues. this is a facet of the latest generations of climate models that really was not recognized five years back or so and whether or not this is going to be um... - this is going to be verified and confirmed by future model runs that's a question, but it looks like land properties, because of the drying that brad mentioned feeding back to the summertime atmosphere, and perhaps causing a potential worse problem to deal within the warm season. next one. this is four diff
