leblanc as well as mr. sorrell vision 2012 the fcc updated its truth in building rules which included protections for consumers from wireline cramming as i noted. the argument was made that there was not enough evidence of cramming on wireless. two years later it is clear wireless cramming is a huge problem and the fcc has not expanded cramming protections for wireless. mr. leblanc, will the fcc take reagan took action to protect wireless consumers from cramming and what about some kind of additional enforcement action? >> thank you, senator klobuchar and thank you for the comments you, filed with the fcc over the last couple years. the record in that matter closed in december of 2013 and we anticipate that it will be ready for a decision within the next several months so we are hopeful that we will see a change. some of the issues presented to the commission involve whether all third-party charges should be banned entirely. also whether or not we should have an opt in process and finally, insuring that the

we could get aftershocks as high as a 5.0. we're hearing from the usgs maybe in the next five to seven days. while it's important to get some of this debris out of the way, if you feel anything shaking again, you want to take cover. >> talk about the damage, but we are now just seeing that damage right behind you, jeff. >> as we continue to take live pictures of downtown napa as well, we saw a lot of the historic buildings structurally damaged there. we want to go to michelle roberts. she's actually live with the usgs this morning with the very latest updates we have on this earthquake to hit napa. michelle. >> well, just in the last hour, though, there have been a handful of aftershocks so far that brings us to 40 aftershocks. the biggest being 3.6. the latest information out of usgs this morning is it has been upgraded from 6.0 to 6.1. can you explain why those numbers have been changed? >> so if you add in a few more digits of precision, the magnitude of this earthquake is right around 6.05. so that last digit, as additiona

as it was. and those were alexander hamilton's words. our keynote speaker joanne freeman. [ applause ] >> thank you very much for that very gracious introduction. i have to say i'm really pleased and honored to be here speaking to you today. particularly at the end of what was an event-filled weekend celebrating and commemorating alexander hamilton's life and accomplishments, and particularly to be speaking here at trinity church, where hamilton was laid to rest 210 years ago today. now, my subject today is alexander hamilton as a man of honor. and i suppose rather perversely i'm going to start by telling you what i'm not going to be talking about today before i launch on what i am going to be talking about. i'm not going to be talking about what an honorable man hamilton was, although he certainly was ab honorable man. but instead i want to talk about what honor as i it was understood in the 18th century meant to him in a concrete way and how it shaped his thoughts and actions overthe course of

much as they were before. it seems to have calmed down a little bit. it does seem to feel like the civilians who stood between the police behind me here and up here where the protesters were, the young folks, that that move actually did make a difference, it does seem to calm things down right here, i can see down here, i can't show it to you, there's too many people in the way, there are still some civilians standing in the street between the police officers as well. so -- >> we've got a separate shot of that, stephanie, they appear to be linking arms, raising their hands in the air. we've got another shot of that, if we can cross to it, now will be a good time, perhaps we don't. >> i can see that from where i am as well, the way that they're standing there, people are moving in this general direction to see what's going on. the helicopters shedding light on the situation as well. people are trying to get closer to see what is happening. the tension that was standing right here where we are, people are walkin

and estimates of the valley of ip system by foreign actors are as high as $300 billion. general keith alexander, intel recently the head of nsa and cyber command at the pentagon, has characterized the cyber theft of american intellectual property as quote the greatest transfer of wealth in history here and, of course, we are on the losing end of it. but no estimate and fully capture the real impact of trade secret theft. because when other countries and foreign businesses steal our trade secrets, they are stealing our ideas. they are stealing our innovation. most importantly they are stealing our jobs. in my own state of rhode island to continue to face unacceptably high unemployment. despite having some of the most innovative businesses in the country. if we do not protect our businesses from those who steal the intellectual property, we are leading the innovation go to waste and we're letting american jobs go overseas. in the past, some companies were reluctant to talk about this issue because no one likes to admit that they have been victimized. but many are now comin

as the u.s. command continues to provide regular updates about our military support to iraq and kurdish forces, this afternoon i want to say a few words about what this assistance has accomplished over the last two weeks. and what based on the president's guidance we can expect going forward. chairman dempsey will give you a brief summary including some numbers on the u.s. military actions to date. but first let me offer my deepest condolences and sympathy to the family of jim foley. the american journalist who as you all know was savagely murdered by the isil. as the department of defense confirmed yesterday, earlier this summer the united states attempted a rescue of a number of american hostages held in syria. including jim foley. we all regret that mission did not succeed. but i'm very proud, very proud of the u.s. forces that participated in it. and the united states will not relent our efforts to bring our citizens home and their captors to justice. jim foley's murder was another tragic dem

you wouldn't know that he was as famous or as successful as he was. i was trying to sell him a cookie at the time. a very laid back person. later people would say that was robin williams. i had no idea. he was just so everyday when he wasn't on. when he was on, he was on. >> yeah. i have been fielding these phone calls one after another. your phone call is from what? >> we are with msnbc. >> and you're -- is this the chris matthews show? >> this is "hardball" with chris matthews. >> incredible. my cell phone is lighting up. i don't even know to whom i am speaking. >> when you think of who he ran with, james, in the '80s and '90s, who were some that are similar to him in this sort of talent and ability and what that age, if you will, of humor was? >> billy crystal, i would say. he and billy crystal were at the top of the list. and mike myers, certainly. they were the people who were able to do this extraordinary thing of somehow calling upon an encyclopedia of knowledge to deal with any subject. >> james, just stand by for a second. for those just join

as long as you work at that job.most people don't stay at those jobs in the reason they don't stay at those jobs is because they stink. it's not fun. it's okay, you know. i practice at a big firm for a while and i liked it all right except on payday i have never missed a day since. one of my grad is to say lawyers get paid a lot of money to for the same reason garbage collectors can make a lot of reasons -- money. view all $180,000 you are a prisoner because you can't leave that. after a year or two you decide you don't like it and you want to go do pro bono work for parp poor people or work at a legal aid clinic it's impossible with that level of debt. of course the big killer is the ultimate screw job, i say that he or? i guess i just do. the ultimate screw job on student loan debt is that it's not dischargeable and bankruptcy which means if you run up $180,000.000 on a bet that you will get the wall street job japanese don't which happens a lot you still owe it. you can borrow $180,000 to flip houses and if it doe

c a part leather, part canvas shoe as good as an all leather one? no, but will it put a shoe on a 10e8d soldier's foot for a time? and in the summer heu1863 you wd have seen thousands of army of tennessee soldiers wearing these part leather/part canvas shoes.v a cue tr accoutrements were done the same way. instead of a set of infantry accoutrements made almost entirely out of leather, why not make a combination of leather and painted canvas? it's a part leather, part painted canvas as good as an all leather set? no. but will it work for a while and more than 5,000 sets of these, probably many more, we've got that record, 5,000 at least, bu were in use in the army of tennessee in the fall of 1863. while alternate materials often could offset some of the difficulties, there were still some problems which were very hard to overcome. one of the greatest difficultie. the confederates had in production at least reliably wai in artillery fuses. confederate artillery fuses were notoriously unreliable. edward porter alexander would say during the siege of ch

well, alice is as worthy of as many books as you could possibly read about her. honestly. people who don't know them as sisters don't believe us when we say that alice, miss alice is she is nope around up to, is everybody -- known around town, is every bit as remarkable and original as nell harper. and that certainly was my experience from the start. so i don't know the answer to your specific question, whoever had that, but i would say just as nell harper had a singular perspective really on what it meant to write the book that she did and then have the response that she did all these years, alice lee, too, was in a singular position in a lot of ways. and really was keeper of the family history. and so one of the things we wanted to do was preserve as many of those stories as she was able to share and that she had time to share. i was ginger in the begin withing about the question of a lot of their friends were pleased that she was willing to to record a lot of the family stories that probably would go with her when she died if she didn't. she just had a memory and now is

as well as fuel and supplies to the sugar mill.s a result of the cutting of the road and other night activity by the viet cong, captain johnston made a recommendation which led to the first disagreement between he and the captain. the recommendation was for regular night patrols throughout the area. although it was followed the battalion commander refused at first because he was used to fighting by day and defending by night. they proved so successful that the battalion commander drew up plans for nightly patrols, receiving high praise from division. johnston's reward was satisfaction from the results obtained. while stationed at the sugar mill the captains and the first battalion participated in other combat operations at company level, as a battalion or as part of a larger unit. helicopters played an important role in such operations and it was up to johnston to request helicopter support through the religion mental adviser and to brief u.s. pilots. the first battalion was to clear this district where the viet cong was active nea

these workers are trying desperately to clean things up as quickly as possible. a big mess. we can still see a lot of liquid and items on the floor. i saw pictures from the starbucks. they had a similar situation over there. and i've seen a lot of pictures from friends who live in this area. i live pretty close myself and a lot of minor damage, things falling off walls and that kind of thing. but fortunately nothing serious that we have seen here in american canyon. we believe this is the epicenter and people did feel it quite violently. one woman described it as a very violent shake. i live up the way and was shaken out of bed myself. reporting live, i'm jodi hernandez, back to you now. >> not a nice way to wake up. we're continuing coverage all this morning. if you're just joining us this morning, a 6.0 earthquake in the south napa area. it was a strong jolt, people are describing. >> it was. it was near the napa airport as well. this the largest earthquake we've seen since loma prieta. that being said, the damage not on a scale as several decades ago. we're going to show

>> not as much as it was later. one thing -- rachel jackson smoking her pipe, we assume pipe-smoking to be a male behavior. in the 19th century, women smoked pipes. men probably used tobacco more than women because men have more access to commercial culture. smoking, just as drinking -- smoking and drinking go together, for one thing. if you engage in these male activities, you would have tobacco present. women would be smoking at home. >> how about snuff? >> that may be the difference. men may be more likely to smoke tobacco and women more likely to take snuff. any references? no, because -- the people who are doing opium are not doing tobacco. >> i have not seen any references to tobacco in any way, shape, or form. >> the use of snuff was never pathologized in the same way as tobacco. >> again, the example of the mail using tobacco is the description i use. at the virginia state capitol in the 1840's and describing the tobacco spit on the marble floor of the capitol as being six inches deep and that everyone had t

that's what we're expecting as far as the weather goes. really no major changes until the end of the week, we'll keep you updated, right now your drive, say good morning to mike inouye who is a busy man this monday. >>> wave lot of folks -- we have a lot of folks on the raep because of the school week starting. look at this, tri-valley has seen a good slow down for west 580. saw that burst cake in about 20 minutes ago. it's holding steady down towards sunol. just getting in towards sunol and fremont. there's your tri-valley, good volume there. also unexpected. this fire of course that we're tracking, we don't expect the fires. this is just off san leandro street. let's look at the camera, we see the smoke. you see this, this is just off of 880, it's also not far from the bart track fwhobs delays reported by bart system and no slowing on the freeway's, 98th avenue from what i understand is open, stay completely clear of this activity. now let's get a live look at the toll plaza where you have the metering lights on. going back in towards th

a legal question as it is as a political question. i think the members of the senate that i've talked to are more concerned with what they would call a practical political reality of the situation. some of them feel, for example, that if they were a sense of congress resolution, that the president should be granted immunity, that most probably most prosecutors, he is sfeshlly federal prosecutors under president gerald ford, most federal prosecutors would not prosecute not because -- but because of the practical politics of the situation. some of the members of the senate see the question of immunity as i guess what my colleagues call plea bargaining. it's pretty clear they've been doing old fashioned political body english, trying to send a message to the white house without saying it in so many words. senator mansfield and bird have said publicly, that if there's to be a successful resignation meaning a resignation that leaves the country happy or united or comparatively happy and leaves the country united without a bitter taste in i

it also occurs to me that, as central as these fugitive narratives are in giving us a source,ice as a primary on american slavery, how rare we see escape narratives as actually part of what has been translated into screen. even solomon northrup, as you know, is counted among the great narratives but is not involved in escape. his release came by legal and political machinations that happened. brad pitt sets all this in motion, of course. we never see any of it on screen, so the drama has to come from elsewhere. there is not much drama. a wagon comes up, papers are shown, he gets in the wagon, and drives off to freedom. so the only instances where we really get a slave escape are those involving women. one is that in "beloved." -- a, a flashback in which really harrowing scene in which in getting ready to cross the ohio river she actually gives birth to the baby girl she will subsequently killed when the slave catchers are out to get her. id in the other, the one mentioned already, "the journey of august king," the entire narrative is driven by the evene, the manhunt, and so, typically

fellman, i think, really tries to split hairs as much as possible and describes sherman as having, quoteerrorist capacities. i also think there is some responsibility, clearly, for both destroying and reigning themselves in that accrues to the soldiers themselves on the march. and part of the reason that the march was not "total" in the 20th century sense was because the veterans limited themselves, held back by own internal and cultural sense of morality. i've done a lot of reading on the march because i have this book coming out this summer. and i will tell you there are very few instances of -- there is not murdering. there is not killing. there is not lining people up and shooting them. there is definitely some violence but not the kind of violence that's associated with wars in the 20th and centuries. so sherman himself may have overstepped the bounds of legality a few times. each time actually in retaliation for confederate actions and these charges again are regarding his use of prisoners of war. in the first instance sherman learned that torpedos or mines had been buried in the r

war as soon as possible. another question is what if the war had not been over in europe, would the bomb have been used in europe? the war was over on may 8th. that was too soon for the bombs being ready. and the question was never focused on whether it would have been used in europe. so truman was in an odd place when he inherited the presidency. and as bill mentioned here, he went with the continuity of things that had r already been put in place. the continuity being that simpson and marshal, two people that truman had the utmost respect for, better to go along with what is already in place than make the contrary decision. so as general gross says, truman's decision was not so much to say yes but to say no. it would have taken an enormous effort to say no. we're going to go some alternate route. and with the people surrounding him and the plans already in place and the momentum under way, it was just not in the cards that truman would do anything else but go along with what had already been put in place. s

as well as why yaeger did the same thing. right?vations of these middle leaders i think is really important, and something that i don't quite understand. i'd ask you to respond to that and explain why they took the step not to act, not to shoot when given the order that night on the 11th -- i'm sorry. the 9th or on -- october or november. yeah. thank you. >> jeff, did you want to say anything? >> i like your work. [ inaudible ] >> yes. i would like to recommend to all of you greg's forthcoming book, "empowering revolution." i'm very much looking forward to seeing the book as well. and thank you for your question. this gives me an opportunity to talk just a little bit more about the book, and as i mentioned at the end of the talk, when i set out to write the book, i needed to figure out the locus of the agency. and as i said, it was not among the elite political leaders on whom i had previously worked since there had not been an elite decision by anyone to tear down the wall. so it was not a top-down story. i tried to look at it as a

hidden as they were once. generally what is the way it works, if you are a star who brings in a lot of money for a picture then you don't care what you are. if, however you're a guy or gal who's working their way up in the system, they care very much what you are and they don't need you. the people would always say to charlton heston, you're so blessed conservative, yet you get the terrific roles. of course he does. he brings -- i used to say millions, now we change it on a "b" a billion. he was a great actor, a great man, and a successful man, and people wanted to be as successful as him, and they wanted to have the kind of gross numbers at their films, but someone starting out can't, and they're smart to just sort of not make a big deal out of it. wait until they can get up to a position where they can really make changes. >> the last time california voted for a republican president was 1988, i believe, george h.w. bush. >> yeah, i think you're right. yeah, you are right. yes. i didn't think of it in those t

people waited as long as 16 years to purchase these vehicles.nd so abandoning it was quite a dramatic statement and there were so many of them the secret police had to collect them at depots such as this one in czechoslovakia. this was a massive exodus. and it tested even the people who were at home. some of the people who had stayed home had to justify staying at home. indeed the phrase stay at home was a term of insult. so suddenly this massive exodus where east germans would go down into hungary, cross the border in austria and come back up to east germany threatened the existence of the east german ruling regime itself which they anticipated would not be case. the east german ruling regime took a series of steps that ultimately culminated even though it did not wish for this to happen in the opening of the berlin wall. so in response to this massive exodus, the east german ruling regime demonstrated the theory of albert hirschman. he had formulated people living under a dictatorship have three choice. you can either find some way to exit. or

it's not as well understood as we all might think. and so once they've done that, just this past handful of days they released the first-ever consensus among all the medical community on the treatment and the prevention of concussions, especially around football, new football practice guidelines around contact and a variety of other things. we signed with the department of defense about two months ago an agreement to do a $30 million project. we're putting up $15 million, dod's putting up $15 million to track longitudinally the first of its kind ever to track longitudinally young men and women and try and get a legitimate history of to car insurance of and treatment of -- the occurrence of and treatment of concussions so we understand better. we're working with all all of te youth sports institutions to try and get better practice guidelines, working with the nfl, their heads up program especially in football, trying to get coaches to teach young men and boys how to tackle properly. there's some girls' soccer coaches that are saying n

the matter we are going to deal with it as much as we can. but we think tackling poverty and inequality will go long way to address the issue. >> south africa has recently launched an ambitious nuclear program. what role will nuclear energy play in the development of south africa's economy? >> we believe it will play a greater role. energy is very critical to economic development. we have a great plan to utilize our energy to help develop our economy and we believe very, very soon there will be a -- what role it plays. we are not looking at energy only as a country. we are looking at it from original point of view as well as the continental point of view. i cashed upon inga project that we believe will go a long way to augment whatever south africa is doing, but to southern africa and to the whole continent. >> aids remains a problem. the pharmaceutical companies are doing all they can do to make anti-aids drugs affordable? >> yes, i think they are trying their best. they are trying their best and i think today it is far better than what it w

of the language as possible. we try to be creative about how we propose those research projects. for example, the issue of the methodology is kind of one of those mechanisms where we talk about the methodology and research or scientific methodology you could almost ignore it is being done on the border and it's going to somehow capture the immigration experience. when we talk to the nex took ths family that is another mechanism because it includes immigrants but then it also includes u.s. citizens so it is unfortunate. the only reason they brought this is one of the representatives seemed to have more forward thinking when we pitched the idea to her. she thought that methodology was a good idea but unfortunately later on she was no longer there which i think is when we were advised they didn't like the project and we could do whatever we wanted spinnaker just a quick note. there are alternative funding sources. the colleagues grants in the foundation and i have to acknowledge that ford foundation that is supporti

as horrible as it was, it's not all out war. in fact, it was counter-productive to those who wanted to keep things racially to the way it had always been. the very violence against civil rights demonstrators that furthers their cause. there a reason, as you know, why southern christian leadership conference after stalemate in albany, georgia, decided to go to birmingham. they went there, because they were pretty sure as the reverend told them they would get a confrontation there that would dram ties to the world what was at stake. that's what happened. fewer whites in the '60s taking up arms. in the 1860s it was millions in the confederate army, fewer 1960s by far, to less effect, and, in fact, the effect us the opposite of what they wanted. in both reconstructions northern blacks played and active role but southern blacks played the decisive role. why is that? give me one reason why southern blacks are crucial both times? they are invested in the outcome. even more simple?

however, as i say, we have had that written statement on al qassam's website, as well as comments from one of the spokesman from the political wing, fazi balgum stating there was a firefight near there, but not taking responsibility for the kidnapping of the soldier. this unique situation near the boarding crossing was that al qassam was referring to on al aksa tv this morning, wolf. >> let's get the israeli version. the spokesman for the idf, lieutenant colonel peter lerner with us. do you know for sure that hamas, not some other group, but hamas has this israeli soldier? >> this is modus operandi of this operation. they've been striving to do so from day one of this mission. they announced already several times abduction. they've tried several times even bodies, body parts. this is what they've been trying to do. that's why they're enough circumstantial evidence to point to hamas as the people who are responsible for it. you add to the fact they're actually investing in these tunnels which are theirs, they belong to hamas. they've invested in them. they've put all of their capabiliti

well. >> as well as keep the stairs straight? >> there was no stance on the stairs from the residential design team. >> okay. commissioner pearlman? >> i am wondering if there were any historic photos before the garage might have been put in, because clearly those are different stairs, you know the stairs that start at the landing point and go up to the house are original and then everything below are all concrete and clearly put in when the garage was put in and so i am wondering about the historic nature of that last, you know the flight from the sidewalk to the first landing. >> yeah. >> and then, one other question, related, is in that general area, are all of the stairs straight up or do some of them shift? >> so, for a quick clarification, we asked that the retaining wall retain the straight run, sorry. and we are opened to the kind of i don't... i guess that it is like where there is a turn in the stairs were open to that because there is a pattern of that within the neighborhood. it is more of a matter of the retaining wa

today spotsylvania is part of the same system as yosemite, as yellowstone, as many of the areas that we fondly have either visited, or we share in their preservation. and in the midst of the civil war president lincoln had the foresight to start to preserve these places, these special places that we still save today. as part of the national park system, places like gettysburg and spotsylvania will forever be an important part of our shared national identity. thousands of visitors from around the world visit these sites and other civil war sites year after year so that we will never, ever forget what happened here. and why are we constantly drawn to remember? joshua chamberlain who many of you know as a college professor, a soldier, a colonel and then a general, after the war became a great advocate for the preservation of special places like we are on today. he explained, perhaps better than anyone else, his own connection to the great fields of the civil war. he said, in great deeds something abides. on great fields, something stays. so think about that. something stays. understandi

not as bad as other homes. this is the mobile home park where we saw a few injuries where people went to their door tos find out that the stairs had separated from their house and they fell down. i talked with a veteran while the earthquake was happening. he said they were watching tv and the entertainment center was on its side. he wasn't moving very well and said it was the most terrifying moment of his life. he had to get the entertainment center off of his wife so she wasn't crushed. people very scared and shaken up. i have seen people literally shaking on the street. their homes are gone. some of them are just going to have to rebuild. that's what we're going to have to deal with out here at the nap pa valley mobile home park. >> we want to remind you there are two evacuation centers. one at nap pa high school and one at grace church. for those just joining us, we want to recap. the earthquake has now been reupgraded to a 6.1. >> u.s.gs will assess their information a lot over the next couple of days and t

i can tell you right now, tornl, not as hot -- tomorrow, not as hot as today, then humidity and shower activity throughout your sunday. we're going to focus in on that. hey, maybe you're leaving this weekend. i don't know why you would, it's going to be beautiful around here. the russian river valley is a nice spot. just takes a couple hours to get there from the south bay. 88 degrees on saturday, monday looking good, upper 0u for you. if you haven't seen the redwood national parks. this is a really cool trip and temperatures are going to be comfortable. upper 60s to low 70s there. shasta, trinty area, comfortable. low 80s for saturday then warmer sunday for 88 degrees. and what's happening locally coming up. >>> first let's check the drive, good morning to mike inouye. >> good morning christina, good morning folks, over here, the cash lanes, and look at the smile of these folks must have on their faces because they have fast tracks. they don't have to wait yet. another few minutes before the metering lights turn on because the volume is moving smoothly. and on the incline. you don't s

and that includes, you know, things as big as the east bay and park and as small as a school district and we have a daunting task ahead of us and the way that we are going to end up doing or creating a regional shore line strategy which includes everybody from san francisco, south around and so on for the 500 miles that we have, is that i think to look through the flood control lens because ultimately what we are going to end up facing as a region, in the near term and medium term is not really sea level, rise, i mean there may be 6 inches by 2030 or 12 by 2050. but what we are really have to be concerned about in the near and medium term is what i called the trifecta which is the sea level rise, combined with a big tide, and a big storm. and if you really want to bet big, you put the earthquake in there at the same time and that is what happened to hawaii last week, we had a 5.0 the day before the hurricane hit. and so, what we are doing, with our partners at the point joint policy committee, abag is working on the an integrated 18 move for 24-month plan that is fully integrated now.

hamas needs fatah as much as fatah needs hamas. hamas understands their is no chance to open the border in gaza without a role for the palestinian authority. at the same time, the palestinian has been desperately keen for a role in gaza and mahmoud abbas has been trying to reassert his relevance in things related to gaza. there is a win-win situation in terms of the relevance of both sides. hamas' position now is very firmly embedded into the palestinian landscape. in a way that a month ago it was not. it was much more precarious. like that of the muslim brotherhood in egypt. now, they are, you have got this broader palestinian safety net around hamas that has cushioned it. >> perhaps that presents an opportunity for later negotiations, if later negotiations are an option. with that, we should take a look at the israeli side of the equation. if we look at the israeli position three weeks ago and the way the cease-fire came about, it seems as though the israeli government got everything it said it wanted. an opportunity to go and de

and join the euro as well so the euro as a currency and as a political economic project is a strong as ever now the cross rate between the dollar and the euro that's going to be volatile but you know i think it's at the low end of the range now i see it gathering strength and kind of chugging its way back to one forty in time. jim is trying to turn down early in the year it turned on the stimulus taps and ramped up industrial capacity and now the daily telegraph says it's exploiting deflation into europe and that's why things are so sluggish so do you agree. yes china has china is basically exporting deflation around the world and the way you export your deflation curse countries want inflation because they want nominal growth to create jobs and pay off the debt so when they're when it's what they want it what they try to do is export the deflation through the exchange rate now they have been exploiting the deflation to the united states for years with a lower if you want cheaper you won against the dollar but that didn't that was running into problems because us was printing so many d

so be on the lookout for possible storms in the south as well as the northern plains. christi?> it's bad enough when you get the heat. >> yes. >> when you get the storms rolling in with the heat. >> um-hum. >> that's when it gets a little dicey, right? >> yes, when it gets dicey, could see the storms today rolling in the south, not only the south, the northern plains so we've got those two areas to watch today. >> all right. appreciate that you are here, jen. thank you so much. >> no problem. >> thank you for starting your morning with us. make some great memories today and stay close because "state of the union" with candy crowley is coming at you now. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com >>> curfew imposed. curfew broken, as the fury of ferguson moves into a second week. >> hands up. >> don't shoot! >> today, missouri governor jay nixon on the state of ferguson's streets, and the investigation into the shooting death of a black teen by a white police officer. >> this is a test. the eyes of the world are watching. >>> then congressman lacy clay and former new york city police

we have as much as 30, 40, $50 billion of reconstruction. those are the initial numbers coming out of gaza. that's a huge amount of money, a huge amount of work in a situation where they have very little access to construction material, very little resources of their own. you got to remember, hamas can't pay its own employees inside gaza, let alone rebuild power plants. so you are going to see a huge need for the people of gaza, so many homes, so much infrastructure destroyed. it is better, there are no israeli drones dropping missiles, there are no tanks shelling or artillery shelling but it is going to be along slog. for the people of israel a sense of relief, so long as these rockets stop flying the normal scene in israel will really pick up very quickly. the are rockets interrupt israeli life. they don't completely stop it. israeli is a robust economy that has multiple layers and all of that picks up rather quickly so long as those rockets don't keep coming in. >> al jazeera's nick schifrin some appreciate you being with us. the conflict

chris hayes as well. does this seem like what should be the case as far as tactics. is this what you would expect? >> it's good at the moment. >> with the officers earlier and they are spreading out and tactics and dispursed large amounts of people. huh a fire in a restaurant and you had the car accident the gunshot reported and a lot of activity and at the moment. like you said, the curfew came in and it looks peaceful. this seems to be the epicenter of where the trouble was late at night. it was also the place where the peaceful protests were in the earlier hours. people seem to be leaving because they don't want to get arrested. it will be interesting to see how many arrests they made. we did see a number of arrests. a few anyway. >> there were seven arrests as far as people violating the curfew. we will see what happens tonight. this is what i'm curious about based on the activity we saw earlier here. the epicenter of the protests for what we saw where the protesters were there earlier around the 9:00 or 10:00 hour. the protesters they were defined by blowing bac

phil donahue has 20 emmy awards, nine as host and 11 for the show, as well as the peabody award, as wells the president's award from the national women's political caucus and the media person of the year award from the gay and lesbian alliance. he has done a lot over the decades, groundbreaking interviews with world leaders and newsmakers. there is so much to say and i will be very brief. i personally remember, as millions of people do, how in 1985, he introduced the satellite space bridge telecast between the united states and the soviet union in the midst of a lot of very cold part of the cold war and then brought his talkshow to russia for a week of television broadcast. phil donahue was the first western journalist to visit chernobyl after the nuclear power accident there. in 2006, phil coproduced and codirected the documentary, "body of war," with a very powerful journalistic and cinematic focus on one young iraq war veteran left in a wheelchair by enemy fire and the parallel process of machinations on capitol hill. phil donahue.
