one of the letters was answered by alisa herself.that one woman from new york would help me where no other organization could. and about a month or so later i was here in new york receiving help. i met alisa who was so full of energy and just positiveness that we became so close and she is like my adopted mom now. >> that is so sweet. alisa, explain to us the process of finding these children, first of all, how you managed to do that and then the process of getting them out of their own country into america. how long do they stay? where do they stay? what happens? >> well, in the beginning, of course, i was very small. so since then it's really the military in iraq, many of the requests, i would say 90% of the requests come from the military. and now everyone is finding us. so the children are out there in this fragile world that we live in, unfortunately. there are so many. so we have the new children that become follow up. so the follow up children come back every year depending on how fast they grow. and then, of course, there's n

that is why this is much more important to them. >> so what happens now, alisa obraztsova?here were sentenced to two years in jail. does that include the five months they have already served? >> of course, hopefully, it includes the five months they have already spent in prison the next step is to appeal and the court of appeals in russia. unfortunately, we do not think this decision will change anything. maybe they will decide to reduce it to two years and a half, maybe not. we really hope the european court of human rights will help us, but we only understand this will take a lot of time. the worst thing and all of this story is that after the court of appeals decision, the girls will be sent to the penal colony. we're really afraid about their lives. imagine there are 140 women in one block. it doesn't matter what, have committed -- it doesn't matter what crime they have committed. they're different religion. we are free they cannot understand this action wasn't about -- was about politics and not religion. that is why we need the media, the interest of media in their li

in tonight's "kids & cash," alisa weinstein says it's not as hard as it sounds. she's author of "earn it, learn it." >> one of most important rules when teaching kids about money is to be consistent. one of the biggest challenges when teaching kids about money is to be consistent. no matter what method you're using-- paying for chores, paying for careers, paying for nothing at all-- everyone's all excited at the beginning, and then it gets harder and harder to stick with it. the biggest culprit? having money around for payday. you find yourself frantically looking through couch cushions, praying you can find what you need to pay your kid on time. so let's see if i can't help you out a bit. if you pay weekly with cash, try taking out enough to cover at least one month at a time so you'll only panic every four weeks. you can also keep an at-home register, on paper or on the computer, where money doesn't actually change hands, but your child can see what he has. at our house, we'll also recycle-- when my kids pay me back cash they owe, i just drop it into the money

foreign min and stayed moscow to look at a political solution to the ongoing crisis but as aussies alisa camplin of now reports western media came up with a rather different picture of what was actually discussed. i want to play to you something that the syrian deputy foreign minister had said during the talks that was grossly missed interpreted and exaggerated in fact in some of the news headlines all over the net recommending resignation as a condition before conducting any dialogue means that you can't attend to the matter of how. dialogue can discuss any problem i don't we are ready to talk about anything even this question can be discussed but a resignation before any mechanisms in place for the syrian people to express their opinion is a democratic approach. but as you can see here right there which i was talking about is the need to remove any kinds of preconditions such as for example the requirement to present bashar al assad stepping down before some sort of a peaceful solution could be negotiated that that is not what was reflected in the news coverage of the talks on tuesday

cumulative effect of such widespread ignorance makes the public more susceptible to the demagogic alisa stimulated year, especially when aroused by a terrorist attack. that in turn increases the probability of the self-destructive foreign policy initiatives. in general, public ignorance creates an american political environment more hospitable to the extremist simplifications. in an interview about this book on cbs brzezinski made it clear that what he had in mind was the war in iraq and afghanistan. and the alarming drumbeat for the war and iran. as he summed it up in that conversation with charlie rose, brzezinski seemed to be channeling his jefferson and plato by saying we can't have an intelligent foreign policy unless we have an intelligent people. white light italy agreed i would like to repeat the demise of the media that i've been discussing has to do with a loss of respect they once held with the american people which is certainly diminished their importance and their influence and the failure of their business model which has left them with devotee of a weakening financial bas
