joining us today are two experts on this issue, richard aviliapo of the teal grep and dan griswold, author of mad about trade why main street america should embrace globalization. thank you for joining us. dan, let's start with you. what is the wto ruling about. what is the complaint and when is the final verdict likely to be out. >> this is probably the most complex case the wto has ever handled. the u.s. filed it four years ago and europe responded with a tit for tat case against boeing. basically the ruling was what the u.s. government wanted. the wto panel ruled that surprise, surprise, the european union has been subsidizing airbus. and the production. it wasn't a clean victory. there were a number of key points that the u.s. maintained but was not upheld by the pain. and this is going to be -- appealed and that will take several months. sometimes the appeals take a year or two, so this is a long way from being finally decided. but the u.s. government can crow that they have proven that -- >> that airbus gets illegal subsidies. >> richard there is a counter suit. what is europe's comp

that's how it teals. >> thanks for the time. appreciate it. >> tough loss for the trojans.nd what happened. >> turnovers. any time usc loses a game it's because it beats itself. oregon state go to corps value list and lose the turnover margin and today lose it 3-0. quarterback position was a liability for the trojans, turned the ball over there and what i thought was to be a more efficient performance for corp coming from the backup role into the starter's role. one, mobility, two, very efficient in not turning the ball over and thought the quarterback position, the turnovers were the difference. >> i think there is a reason they happen. when you look at what washington was able to do. you can't underor overestimate how important it was to have steve sarkisian who used to be the offensive coordinator for usc and nick holt, the defensive coordinator over there on the washington state. these guys did a great job of coming up with plans and schemes to put aaron corp in situations where he would struggle. >> steve not the only tie. five assistant coaches with ties to usc. it wa

and also from teal, florida retired doctor tara wah.ted to start with you, because you know firsthand the impact of the cost of malpractice insurance. you actually quit being a doctor? >> yes, i quit practicing medicine about a year ago at sort of the peak of my career because my malpractice insurance went over $125,000 a year. and i was taking home less salary than the brand new doctors coming out of residency and i had been in practice 25 years. and i just couldn't make ends meet anymore with my practice. seeing the number of patients they wanted to see and taking care of them the way i wanted to take care of them. >> and what was that like for you? you had to have been torn up, after doing this for 25 years, going through medical school and spending your whole life helping people. >> i spent lots of sleepless nights crying. >> i'm curious, dr. everly, can you relate to that? can you relate to what tara had to go through and still going through? >> absolutely. there are many physicians across this country that are facing exactly what

performance has been good and his up i'd is really good and we feel excited about getting him as part of the teal and he is a part of the deal that we fought hard at the end to extract him from the cottagers rather than taking a more seasoned minor league pitcher for him. >> talking about the this young guy they got in the deal for ronnie belliard. there on the left is byron kerr, he picks the good road trips, a trip out of san diego, all the talk about the number 1 pick in the draft, stephen strasburg and to by ron's left is scott hop good. byron. >> thanks a lot johnny, yes, scott hop good the high school coach for stephen strasburg, you were pumped up talking to me about stephen strasburg, had to be a nice summer to see what happened to steven. >> i'm completely excited for this guy, he worked hard. for him the sky is the limit and this opportunity, it's going to be great to watch. >> take me back to that junior see one when you were at west field high school, you look back and see that 6'4" right- hander. >> i am thinking we have got some big kids here but we'll see how they are on the field.

probably will be with another teal, but, like i say, at the end of this season, you know, that's goingortant day, because going to be my first to time, almost 11 years in the big league, that i'll be a free agent, so that's exciting. >> well, melvin is making a good case for himself, and helping the orioles while at it, so that's not a bad thing. in his last 8 games, 12 hits in 30 at bats. that's .400 average. he's hit three home runs with 7 rbi. he is 4 for 7 if this series, so lease looking toward this future, but also setting an example at the plate and defensively here in baltimore right now. tom? and all right, amber, we appreciate that report. of course amber will be along during the game and also on our post-game show. dave, what do you think the chances are the orioles will buy out the option on mora? >> well, it's something to think about. one thing mora has done all year long, again regardless of the hitting woes, he's played solid defense. yes, he does have a big number if they want to pick up the option. i assume if they decline the option, maybe they work out a deal. they

you also see a great teal of marine activity in helman province. so there is increasing focus on regional command south, the traditional heartland of the taliban. i know there have been reports out there so the focus should be on kandahar city itself. i think that's obviously a goal of ours to be able to secure a significant afghan population that resides in kandahar city. i think 800,000 people making it the second largest afghan population center. but that requires a significant amount of resources. the judgment was made to focus on the areas around kandahar city before returning our attention back to kandahar city. the residents of kandahar city should fully expect when the time is appropriate and we make gains outside kandahar city do more to provide with the afghan forces for their protection. >> [inaudible] >> well, you're combining many issues here. whether president karzai's popularity and the confidence he has of the afghan people is a separate issue and obviously the election results would certainly suggest that people do support presiden
