detail. >> there are currentl a high rate of false positis. >> reporter: for now security will stay as is while the debate over policy is unlikely to go anywhere. the new poll shows about 80% of american don't have a problem with the increased screening. meantime, it was pointed out the pat-downs are only for those who need additional screening or for those who refe to go through body scanning machine. and congress did mandate the use of the body scanners so it is unlikely lawmaker will alter that. germany is stepping up transportation security because of cncern about a possible terror strike. policere increasing security measures in airports, train stations and other possible targs. a foreign intelligence service provided them with concrete informing about a planned attack at the end of november. they said the intelligence matches leads they've gathered on their own. this is the first time concrete

morales, that could be pivotal in the outcome of this case. a note from the jury today. they wanted a picture of ingmar guandique. a picture taken by his girlfriend in rock creek park in the spring of 2001. but it is unclear as to whether or not that picture was taken before or after chandra levy disappeared. deliberations, they continue tomorrow. back to you. >> pat collin, thank you. coming up, a news4 exclusive. somebody robbed and beat up a d.c. teacher and left her f dead. more storm damage. we'll show you where planes were tossed around like toys. new concerns about dick cheney's health. whaez ahead in sports? >> hey, doreen. wizards star johnson wall loses the crutches. will he play agains the celtic in and redskins quarterback donovan mcnabb talks about moving on.

it is ugly. the redskins back on the field for the first time since that monday night meltdown. a lightpractice today because of the short week. at four and five, the redskins two games behind but still in the playoff mix, although it is hard to think about playoffs after seeing them dismantled. donavan mcnabb, one of several players who would like the get back on track. he threw three interceptions for the first time as a redskin monday night. hehas yet to consistently impress this season. he did get that new contract. what was thought to 40 million guaranteed. about 3.5 million. the questions about mcnabb's future in washington are still the. the team could cut him or trade hum at the end of the year. >> everyone will try to nitpick about the contract. that's not my concern. until people really actuallyee that contract, they'll know.

but it is just for me focussing on tennessee. >> take a look at my contract. i'm sure hoping i'm here in five years. you're always hoping that you fulfill that contract. making sure the person won't be here. i'm hoping. >> that last question from a reporter one mike shanahan gets a lot of guaranteed ney. he gets about $5 to $6 million a year. the whole thing is guaranteed. >> he said to the reporter. always a trouble milwaukmaker o. >> nothing with mcnabb is guaranteed though. >> he got his $they.5 millio bonus paid right after he sig d signed. it's not guaranteed until next season. so they have a huge decision to make in the off-season. >> will you be surprised if donavan mcnabb is not here next season? >> i wouldn't be surprised and i

wouldn't b surprised if he is here. one of the pundits whom i respect a great deal thinks that now he is easier totrace. they already have him locked into the contract. it really doesn't answer anything at this point in tim from mcnabb to haynesworth. it seems like the story lines are the same as the first dave training camp. albert haynesworth tang a beating. it's been all oh the place. haynesworth falls to the ground and stays there while the play the is going on. michael vick throws a touchdown pass. third quarter, go haynesworth falls here and he can't get up. order won't get up. or he is rt. who know what happened? you can see this. andre carter, 99, running agency fast as he can to get to t quarterback. michael vick, he runs right past haynesworth on the ground. and look. touchdown. for the eagls. inexcusable play.

here's his explanation. >> i've got taken out by friendly fire. a charlie horse in my thigh or whatever. i knocked him back and i thought i heard the whistle. i stayed there for a second. i looked up. i loed and he throws the ball for a touchdown. i mean, i was being taken out by my own teammate and then that. >> really. i mean, i watched that a couple of times and i did hear maybe just a little tweet. but nobody else in that whole field stopped playing. >> can we move on? that's disgusting. i don't even want to talk about it do you know anything about that? >> no. i didn't hear hill say sorry. i blew it. >> john riggins as we move on had some on camera rants.

dan snyder call him a taliban bad guy. said he had a dark heart. the hall of famer did not quite reach that level toy. he did say he believed snider is still very much involved in the decision making process, along with mike shanahan. >> mike shanan was brought in to take care of the football operation. but on some situations, the ownership would be involved in the decisions. i'm sure that's true around the franchises around the league. i do believe, my personal beliefs are the latter. that shanahan was brought in. i don't know if he realized what he was getting into. i do believe the owner was still dabbling in day-to-day operations in what goes on in the field. the perfect example is none other than donovan mcnabb brought over in the trade. and i think it more or less, mike shanahan has had to work this. ani think that that is, when you start with that, at nothing really has changed, then

you have to accept that and go from there. then we can look at what shanahan has done and what he's been allowed to do. where the team is right now. >> all right. john riggins' opinion has generally the last year or so been anti-dan snyd. >> did not i hear him say today, we are never going to the super bowl. >> he has said that before. he is not the only one who has said that. talking hoop now. wizards' super rookie will not reply ainst the celtics. gilbert arena there's once again start. he changed things up at halftime. he went into the lo he room and changed his shoes. you can see gill wearing the white shoes as he hits a three-pointer. he really wasn't troeking it too well until he went into the locker and came back out. you can see him. check out the shoes.

they're black now. and he is shooting a lot better. he scored 20 appoints in the game. it must have beenthe shoes. john wall on the bench. liking that. knick young playing some ball last night. they win 109-94. here's flip saunders on his missing star point guard. >> we're hoping to have joh back. i talked to john a i tried to explain too to have him who wally partnership was. he wasn't sure. and i said do you know who lou gehrig is? yeah. th's why you don't know who wally pip is. >> most people probably know who he is. he went to catholic university. most mous for being the yankees' first baseman before lou gehrig started that streak of 2130 coecutive games. the rumor was, he was actually yanked out. >> i don't think most peel knew

that. >> i'm glad you explained that. coming
