he said i think it might be better placed in the atlantic. even then the way i'm sure the current presidents think, how is this going to be received. at one point he received, just as today, president obama will bring in, you know, david brooks and conservative columnists or bring in frank rich and liberal economists and try to spin them, he did the same thing. ralph waldo emerson comes into the oval -- the white house and lincoln talks to him. you know, i think as a result of that actually maybe increases the intensity with which he is pursuing the writing of the emancipation proclamation. >> paul revere's ride, this edition, how does that tie into the abolition movement and the civil war? >> the irony is it is superficially a heroic of the midnight ride and the revolution war. the context was longfellow was always -- he himself was sort of a timid guy and weary of engaging in politics. he had become very good friends with massachusetts governor sumner, out spoken abolitionist. in the 1850s through 1860s, longfellow was taken up with aboliti

atlantic assembly. all too often, my friends, they lack influence and presence in public debate. above all, however, loathe as i am to suggest another gathering of international leaders, i would propose an annual sonnet of the heads of government of all the north atlantic countries under the chairmanship of the president, president of the united states. what this all adds up to is not another super national entity. that would be unwielding and unworkable. it is something more subtle, but i hope more durable. a fall of atlantic partnership which attempts to solve common problems for respecting the sovereignty of the member states. in the cause of identifying these problems and trying to solve them, graduates would discover they were helping to shape public opinion and political consciousness. the reaction 50 years ago to that earlier speech was swift, dramatic and at first highly critical. indeed, to judge the critics, you would think it was not stalin but churchill that had drawn down the iron curtain.

yes. >> george benito senior fellow at the atlantic council. recently at nato's meeting of defense ministers, panetta and rasmussen both highlighted nato's response force as one of nato's key answers to the age of austerity and how nato can do more with less, how it can protect key nato capabilities from defense cuts. however, in nato's largest mission, afghanistan, nato's response force was not used. in nato's most recent mission, libya, nato's response force was not used. as commander of one of the most successful operations in nato's history, is nato's response force a luxury vehicle that will never leave the garage and will never be driven? or under what circumstances will nato's response force be used, what type of missions will it justify the investment of resources if it is received? >> probably the first answer is the easiest one. the second one is a little more complicat complicated. but still both of them, is nato response force a luxury vehicle? i don't think so. before being tasked with this operation, in fact, i spent a year traini

they will come together over the mid-atlantic region. looks like the storm will really crank up once everything gets out over the atlantic, which means a little too late for us to get anything significant, but with the low passing to our south and a cold front coming in after it, it does prolong any rain or snow chance into saturday and through much of saturday. yes, we will get something out of it. probably someone will get snow accumulation, and we will talk about how much coming up in just a minute. >> thanks, john. getting birth control the same way you get a candy bar. tech university may put the morning after pill in vending machines -- tuft university. right now, it is available over- the-counter for women under 17. it might be made available in the health building after hours. another university did the same thing this week. officials say women need access to the pill without having to make an appointment to maintain privacy. >> in 2011, we dispensed about 155 doses right from the health center, but again, now that it is over the

instead, this crew fell 500 miles short of their trans- atlantic journey. we will have their harrowing tale. welcome to our viewers on pbs in america and around the globe. western allies have brought in some of their heaviest hitters to the united nations to demand that action be taken against syria. after 10 months of the deadly crackdown, more than 5400 people have been killed, and now, the assad regime is coming under increasing pressure, but will the security council be able to overcome raises resistance to sign on to the draft? >> syria's anguish has come to the streets of new york and to the united nations. syrian exiles, including victims of the assad regime, are demanding united nations support. it seeks to strip president assad of power within two months. william hague is one of the key foreign ministers who have come to new york to back arab league ministers. he deliberately stresses that it is the arab world, not the west, leading demand for change. >> we are underlining that thousands of people are dying, that we want a way forward in this crisi

, atlantic ocean. and my fido couldn't make up his mind as to which abort mission he wanted to call. and i proceeded to do his job for him. i exercised what they call a mode three abort, which was trying to drive the spacecraft back to the atlantic, and i called the abort that he should have called. and i passed it on, the crew executed this thing, and it was obvious that with the time delays in this entire process, that i had picked the wrong abort mode and the spacecraft, instead of ending up in the atlantic, ended up in spain. well, this wasn't a good landing point, and, you know, you feel real bad when you blow one of these training runs. but the instructor really drove the stake in that i had done the wrong thing. when he says, not only did you put the spacecraft down on land, you killed the crew because of the mountains that you brought them in are above 10,000 feet and that's where the parachutes should open. so basically they hit the mountains before the parachutes opened. and you will debrief

. ,and so it became an atlantic wr first until we could rebuild our efforts in the pacific. yes? >> do you have a new book in the works, and will it have the same theme of -- >> i have two more books in the works that will deal with president roosevelt. i got fascinated by president roosevelt's activities during this period of pearl harbor and decided that i would write about him more. because this is a presidential election year coming up, i'm preparing a book that will come out sometime during this election year on the wartime campaign of 1944. the first wartime campaign for the presidency since the civil war when roosevelt ran for a fourth term against young tom dewey, governor of new york state. the book will be entirely about the wartime campaign, though it will include the war itself because roosevelt actually went to pearl harbor for the first time after the attack in 1944 to confer with admiral nimitz and general mcarthur about what to do next to try to defeat japan. so roosevelt was at pearl harbor, and he went on to the aleutians from pearl harbor and came back fro

any trans-atlantic voyage in the 17th through 19th centuries was indeed a very dangerous journey. at the beginning of the slave trade process, the death rate among slaves was about 20%. so, pretty high death rate, about 20% of the slaves did not make it to the western hemisphere. however, as time progressed, that death rate began to drop. by the time slave trade ended, the death rate hovered about 4%, so from a death rate of about 20% to about 4%. interestingly, though, if you look at the trans-atlantic death rates of european immigrants to the western hemisphere, the death rates are about the same as the slave trade, if you compare it to the final 4% number. many americans are confused about who brought slaves from africa to the western hemisphere. the process was relatively simple. first of all, it was primarily africans that went and captured other africans. that would be brought to the coast of western africa, and they would be traded -- they would trade those captured africans to europeans who would make themselves and then transport them to the western hemisphere. it was fir
