the stunning upset of the canadians at the hockey game, apollo ono becoming the most decorated american olympic winner of all time -- you cannot doubt the athletic prowess on display. it is not just the metal, that is inspiring, although we have done great on that score. what is truly inspiring is the character of the men and women, the sacrifices they have made, the integrity they have shown, the olympic spirit that says no matter who you are, where you come from, or what difficulties you face, you can work hard and train hard and triumph in the end. that is why we watch. that is why we cheer. that is why in the middle of a challenging time for america we have been able to come together as one nation for a few weeks in february, swell with pride on what our citizens achieve. i realize that finding this unity is easier said than done, especially in washington. but if we want to compete on the world stage as well of -- as well as we have competed in the world games, we need to move past the bickering that has held us back. i know it is possible to do this. we were reminded of that last w

so lindsey vonn and the women's hockey team, and apollo ohno, all of those people have been to multiple olympic games, they know what to expect. and the last thing for me as we say in real estate, location, location, location, these games being just across-the-board never vancouver meant that they were a home game for the united states. a home game without the home pressure. so these athlete kos come up here, easy flight force a lot of people from the west coast, they could go back and forth, the figure skaters went home for a few days and then came back. they could also have these great perform an a-- performances on familiar terrain but without the pressure of a home country cheering you on. >> we always expect great reporting from christine brennan, thank you very much. good to see you. >> thank you, judy. >> lehrer: again, the major developments of the day: suicide bombers launched attacks in the heart of kabul, afghanistan. at least 16 people were killed, half of them were foreigners. the taliban claimed responsibility. and a winter storm hovered over the northeast u.s., bringing h

our lessons learned and nasa go back to apollo i.s when we had the first eye-opening of earth that maybe we didn't know everything we thought we knew. and then we felt really good about ourselves in 1986. i can tell you i landed in the middle of the desert, i landed in edwards air force base in the middle of the night on january 18. you know, went back home to houston and going through my debriefs and my very last day of debrief we took a break to watch the space shuttle challenger launch and 73 seconds into flight i lost seven dear friends. and we were awakened that this is hard and that you've really got to stay on the top of your game. then, again, january 1, 2003, at the end of a mission when everybody is celebrating because nobody thinks, you know, that you're going to have a problem doing re-entry, except us who are in the game who know that it's not over until it's over. and that's why you call wheel stop because everybody can then breathe. and once again we were reminded that this is tough stuff. so i think there are lessons

our lessons learned in nasa go back to apollo burr one. we felt really good about ourselves in 1986 like until you i landed in the middle of the desert at the air force base in the middle of the night january 18th, went back home to houston and going through my debriefings and my very last day of debrief we took a break to watch the space shuttle challenger and launched in 73 seconds into flight i lost seven friends and we once again were the weekend that this is hard and that you have really got to stay on the top of your game. then again january 1st, 2003. at the end of a mission when everybody is celebrating because nobody thinks you're going to have a problem doing their reentry except us in the game who know that it's not over until that is over and that is why you call what stop because of the aubuchon breed. we are reminded this is tough stuff. there are lessons to be learned from the columbia challenger, apollo one and other incidents we had along the way that didn't get the press goes did. the president has set a bold challenge. w

. >>> speed skater apollo opaloll for causing a crash in the final turn. night wasn't a total loss. ohno managed to win a bronze medal. his career medal total now stands at eight, which is more than any other u.s. winter athlete. so, as we enter the final two days of olympic competition, the united states still the overall leader in medals with 34 but canada leads in the gold medal count with ten. >>> michael jordan is now the controlling owner of the charlotte bobcats. the deal went down late last night. no word on the purchase price. the team valued at $278 million in december. jordan turned 47 this month and has been part owner of the bobcats since 2006. >>> so, here we go again. is he coming back? brett favre, or is he going to retire? the vikings willing to be patient when it comes to the answer. childress is not going to put favre in any box. after 19 nfl seasons he's earns that latitude. that's a look at sports. i'm joe cart. >> we, of course, continuing to get new information about that massive earthquake that struck clooil this morning. the latest ahead. >>> also, why frien

let me remind you of this picture that was taken on the first apollo mission that went to the far side moon. and last of the orbits, one thes astronauts look the picture. in the picture, it's a very desolate moon and warm and inviting earth. the takeaway message is there's nowhere else to go. we came all of this way to explore the moon and the most important thing is that we've discovered the earth. now since that time, since 1968, we've also discovered that an unintended consequence of the industrial revolution is that the carbon pollution is changing the destiny of our planet. so it's very important that we mitigate those changes. in your document, you said we need to help educate the public, schools and other jurisdictions, professional association, businesses and industry by reducing global warming pollution. and i think what we need -- we need a lot of things that put us on this path. we need the block grants, we need a lot of the r&d programs, we need a lot of the tax credits, but we also need something else. we need a long-term signal in the united states that tells businesses o

we have the best engineers in the world who were laid off in apollo literally pumped gas at gas stationsuntil their homes were foreclosed and then they were forced to move on never to return again. we had to remove the space program again as mr. bishop -- mr. akin: you are making the same case that congressman bishop just made, you are getting highly trained people and takes years, a whole lot of research to do it and you cut it off at the knees. i wanted to recognize mr. bishop and i promised i would get back to congressman hensarling. we are getting close on time. congressman bishop. mr. bishop: i appreciate the gentleman from florida. there are some core responsibilities the government would have to do and the government has promised they would do these and the people that are working on the nasa side are the same people we need on the defense side. one would think as mr. hensarling showed the amount of money that is being thrown in this particular budget, $3.8 trillion, you could at least cover the needs. mr. akin: both of you have made a very significant point. you're saying 1% of t

so i think there are lessons to be learned from columbia, challenger, apollo i, and other accidents and incidents that we had along the way that didn't get the press that those did. i think the president has set a bold challenge for us. you know, we are not drifting. i think i heard -- i've had friends in houston right be when you talk about flexible path, and i do, okay, flexible path is hard to grasp. but let me help you. okay. they sent me a thing and i think they said this is like alice in wonderland. when you're going everywhere, you are going nowhere. well, we are not going everywhere. we have defined destinations that we want to go, and we'll go there and criminally. and through our technology development, that will help determine where you go first. we want to take advantage of opportunities that come as the technology develops. so i think, frank, i hope that answers your question. >> i am from aol news. given the cost overruns and delays on constellation and previous nasa programs, why is this going to be different? >> it's going to be different because, for one thing, the pres
