i have to start with ray charles. >> ray was like my brother from another mother.in florida. he had sight until he was six. he had chickenpox and scratched his eyes when he was in florida. he went to the white house, they wouldn't let him in. when he got to the black house, he was blind. he was like 100 years older than me. he was living at home. i was 14. he had his own apartment, two pair of shoes, two pair of suits, two girlfriends, a record player then and everything. ray was very independent. his mother taught him to not be like with the canes and the dogs. ray would go shopping on his own, whatever. the streets, cross the lights. i never could figure out how he could do that. the only time ray got blind was when there pr pretty girls around. stevie does the same thing today. i bust him all the time. you get all blind, man. >> part of their rap, man. >> you meet my girlfriend. they are beautiful, though. we had the time of our life man. >> what about frank sinatra? >> oh, please, man, that's my brother, another brother. i was working in paris running a record

their longtime collaboration with barbara streisand including frank sinatra, ray charles, fred astaire. we are the idea of joining us from coming out, right now. >> every community has a martin luther king boulevard. it's the cornerstone we all know. it's not just a street or boulevard, but a place where walmart stands together with your community to make every day better. >> and by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you. thank you. we're back for the second night of our conversation with two of the greatest composers of our time. for the streisand became then use, but she was given a lot of good stuff to work with. we are honored to have them back for the second part of our conversation. when we left this conversation last night, i have asked you, and want to put you on the spot too bad, i want to give you some time to think about it had allen made the point that the toughest part of your job is trying to find a new way to have to find love and talk about love. give me a few lines that you have written that speak to that condition that you're really proud of. >> what

romney should open up with the ray charles song ♪ unchain my heart >> allege george w.h the grocery store standing, the republicans are stupid and idiots we don't like the policies and that's the way the media will try to portray a republican. >> jon: talk about that, rudy guiliani, the former republican candidate for president and new york city mayor questioned biden's mental acuity. i mean, is anybody asking that question? >> yeah, i'm not as concerned about that as i am about the fact that i just think that he-- first of all, i think's overrated i would never go as far as to question his mental acuity. he's been overrated, he's been presented an an important policy genius since he's been in the senate since he's 30. i think part of the reason that biden gets such a pass and it's one of the problems in washington is that he has been schmoozing with these reporters and editors for the last 30 years. he has, now, everyone loves to go to his parties and i think that people cut him slack because of that. >> jon: and you in the audience didn't see it, but every single head

even ray charles sees what's going on here.out voter suppression in democratic areas and areas predominantly african-american. >> we did reach out to the ohio secretary of state and waiting to hear back from them. he said, in fact, that he may step in to make this -- to make the change, to extend voting hours across the county. you see it as voter suppression but you what are the answers given? some might say we're trying to save money. >> well, deb, you know, there's a cost to run a clean and fair election and then there's a cost to run an election that is a debacle to return us to 2004 that will make a mockery out of the democracy. yes, there's a cost and we should err on the side of extending the vote. you know, a lot of people work, they work two, three jobs. voting hours 8:00 to 5:00 doesn't help people that work. we have to have access to the ballot. this is united states of america. this is the state of ohio. we relish in folks having the ability to vote and why should it be suppressed in the state of ohio? again, it is

. >> even ray charles could see what is going on here. flat out voter suppression in democratic areas. and also areas that are predominantly african-american. >> john huston is ohio's secretary of state. he is joining me live right now. these are some pretty powerful accusations. but what is the explanation here? why would there be such a disparity? >> well, let me reassure you and ohio voters that it will be easy and secure to vote. and let's talk about the rules in ohio. you can start voting 35 days before the election either by mail or in person. every single voter receives an absentee ballot request, which they can return and receive an absentee ballot and have over 750 hours to vote without ever leaving their homes. if you contrast that with our border states, pennsylvania, michigan, kentucky, they don't have early voting. it is very easy to vote in ohio. it is secure to vote in ohio. the issue at hand has been in law and in tradition in ohio that local boards of elections have established their own voting hours. this is how it was i

past students include actor ray ray mono and charles barkley. >> as well as me hopefully some day itld be nice to get on that show. >> you just need good weather to make that happen. >> just need good weather and transition. good weather on tap for those looking for it. >>> yeah depends on what you like. hot inland once again. high nor cool down for the afternoon -- minor cool down for the afternoon. for those that really need it it may go undetected. we have temperatures back in the 100. low 50s and 60s. fog around the bay north and south and along the coast and patchy dense fog. visibility down to a mile in santa rosa. a little bit less than that. parts of the coast half-moon bay. by noontime those are your lunchtime records. in the forecast around the bay area 60s remaining at the coast. some of our hottest spots already touching 90 degrees. areas near livermore and antioch. and into the afternoon that shade of pink is back although it's not as wide spread. some of us that barely hit 100- degrees or so will fall back in the upper 90s. fairfield 105 yesterday. 98 for today. 100 in

rays off mexico's st. benedict island. >> osgood: i am charles osgood.journey to ports of call and will join us again next sunday morning. until then i will see you on the radio. and what that feels like. copd includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. spiriva helps control my copd symptoms by keeping my airways open a full 24 hours. plus, it reduces copd flare-ups. spiriva is the only once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that does both. and it's steroid-free. spiriva does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these may worsen with spiriva. discuss all medicines you take, even eye drops. stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. nothing can reverse copd. spiriva helps me breathe better. does breathing with copd weigh you down? ask you

ray rice is back, got his new contract. i think he will grind and pound. >> coming up in seven minutes a bigger star than josh charles. we will meet the fan starring on espn who seize fans live and die with the ravens. >> let's move to the orioles. their future now, their best prospect promoted, manny. >> welcome to manny more. his first hit was a triple. come on. around second. manny had two hits and played third and the orioles 8-2 loss breaking a five game winning streak. christian watched his every move. >> reporter: best thing i was saw was him rounding the bases on that triple. he was flying. he made nice plays at third. didn't look out of place and with the loss he brought a jolt extra excitement to camden yards. you may not expect a big walk up crowd on weekday night with the worst team in the american league in town and the ravens playing a pre-season game on tv but a big walk up is just what the orioles got, maybe the five game winning streak or maybe the t-shirt give away but all indications are that this guy was responsible. >> i was kind of looking online about the game and saw that he had been called up
