madam speaker, the boy scouts of america was incorporated by chicago publisher william dickson boys on february 8, 1910. with president william howard taft named to serve as the organization's first honorary president. pursuant to its stated purpose, the newly founded boy scouts of america sought to educate america's youth in, quote, patriotism, courage, self-reliance, and kin drid values to a variety of educational, civic, and recreational programs and activities. by the year 1912, every state in america could claim a troop of scouts. in 1916 the organization received a federal charter from the 62nd congress. since its incorporation in 1910, the boy scouts of america has now witnessed the enrollment of over 111 million scouts. with scouting currently found in 185 countries around the world. former scouts and scout volunteers include a number of prominent americans. including president's john f. kennedy, george w. bush, jimmy carter, bill clinton, and gerald ford. president ford often described the impact of scouting on his career stating that, quote, without hesitation because of scou

he played at school and at home because he was a boy. but just because he was a boy he had a lot of privileges. my parents were relatively liberal and they sent me to school. my cousins didn't go to school in the village. they were married when they were 10 years of age and they tried to marry me when i was 10 years but i rebelled. [laughter] >> anyway, so my brother had everything. and did nothing, almost nothing. he was spoiled. so i asked him, why -- my parents and my family, why is this happening? they said this is a boy and you're a girl and i said so what? and then when they are cornered, they told me that's what god said. so i went to my room, closed the door. the first letter i wrote in my life was to god. i wrote him a letter and, of course, i didn't know his address. but i wrote -- [laughter] >> and i told him, dear god, you are supposed to be justice because my grandmother, who was a peasant, she was very brilliant, she told me -- she never read the koran. she was illiterate. we know god by our mind. so when i was 5 years, i u

i will remember that little boy. he was passionate to maim. as far as it was for him to understand the system vienna said his country failed him. that should not be happening today, that is what we're trying to do with this bill here and other hard decisions ahead of us? yes are there a pile of amendments, yes. to fight is is two these solutions absolutely. but the argument that we should delay doesn't have to hold water with me. we have been talking about health care reform for decades. we have listened to the stores like i've just talked about and reval heard and we can delay this any further, we need to get to the hard work sitting to this committee, working to the amendments, coming of with a product we can move to the end of the day the other argument i hear on the other side this is going to cost too much. i will tell you what cost too much -- would cost too much is status quo. a $2 trillion a year that we spend in this country every year on health care with an adequate coverage for too many americans with not a focus on preventive care

and boy, oh, boy, you are one out away from a win, a save and the orioles say, huh-uh, we're not doneust yet. >> jim: this has been an amazing trip. again, on saturday night, 25 outs, one out, nobody on and then the orioles then strike for three runs to get the lead. here tonight, two outs and nobody on, so the marlins got 26 outs and then the barrage. five straight singles driving in three runs to tie the game. pinto falls behind on nick markakis, jones and huff will follow. and they have to bat. there's nobody left. this has been some game! markakis fouls it off. pinto got into 67 games last year. he has been used often to get a lefty out and that's it. markakis is hitless on the night. he does have an rbi on a sac fly. ball three. the orioles scored two in the eighth and three in the ninth to get even. the marlins, their big inning was in the seventh when they scored five runs. the 3-1 is inside. ball four. and a lead-off walk in the 10th. >> buck: we can't overstate it enough, when this team started winning games, but those five straight wins together, the hitters became more pati

her, i hurt you all, i hurt my wife, i hurt my boys, i heard friends like tom davis. i heard a lot of different folks. and all i can say is i apologize .. the people in south carolina and saying where do we go from here. i would simply say i go back to that simple word of asking for forgiveness. just as a decorative statement before we open up for a couple questions that i will move on -- i have tried to think of first missteps is clearing out more time as a good this process of of reconciliation and figuring out what comes next. i am going to resign as chairman of the republican governors association and tendered my resignation because i think it is their purpose thing to do given other governors across this nation and my role as chairman of the rnd a, and it frankly from the standpoint of time. if i think about this process not only the beginning i family level but the family of south carolinian so that means me going one by one and town by town to talk to a lot of old friends across the state and what i have done her embarrassing for their forgiveness, that will ta

that a boy. pump it in there. get ahead. >> bob: kevin millar this year is 0-7 as a pinch-hitter, .428, four homers, 28 rbi's. rios at third, overbay at second and barajas, first. 0-2! he's been great in situations like this. i'd say most of those numbers did not come when the count was 0-2. fastball fly ball. got to be caught. willie harris and joel hanrahan might have just saved the game in the eighth inning. we shall see. >> rob: nice. ange my southwest flight. woman over phone: no problem. you know, maybe other people are content to sit around and wait. wait for something to happen. for business to pick up. but for you, it's time to kick it in gear. time to get going. time to get tough. take control. you're not gonna run and hide. because backing down's not your style. grab your bag. it's on.

the guard did not allow the boy's family to enter. their precious youngster had transformed into a mass of infectious waste potentially spreading disease to anyone who touched him. his parents would never again caress his face or hold his small body in their laps. there could be no goodbye kisses. the father brought a shawl to the front gate and handed me the clean white cloth. i took it in hands that faintly trembled from the site i had just witnessed one that made me want to flee far from that face. we exchanged no words and i again closed the door. what was there to say? through the crack in the fence i could see man's wife standing next to him. riv lets streaming down her cheeks. there was no end to hem. amy was showing me putting on the protect equipment, boots, gloves dressed like a surgeon marooned in a distant land she proceeded the prepare the boy's body for burial. that was one of my first days at the ward. as you can imagine it was a bit aftershock for me. i went down originally thinking i was just going to be doing mostly

boy, these final games of the series have just been tough, four wins and 17 losses in the final games of series. and often, they ends up being the rubber match games there in the bullpen, feliciano, shan green warming up. as manual will match up as needed. >> jim: it's the best bullpn the national league. >> jim: of course have been struggling lately -- orioles have been struggling lately. record under .500, and you know looking at the score board, yu talk about the 7 home runs in philadelphia, they know the phillies lost. >> gary: got him on the inside corner. strikeout number 4 for hernandez. two down in the 7th inning. >> jim: let's look at the pith track. defend, it's probably a ball, but -- again, it's probably a ball, but if you're around the plate, you do encourage, i'm not sure if mark needed encouragement, you encourage they will to call strikes? he has a complete game, and -- [ indiscernible ] hernandez looks like he puld something there, shortstop coming in to have a word with him. don't know what that was abou. >> jim: i'

and, plus, new orleans is new orleans, and i'm a small-town boy from the midwest. you walk down bourbon street, and it makes an impression on you. so from the beginning i wanted to get a job in new orleans. i had fallen in love with the city, and i'm still in love with it, hopelessly, lo these many years later. c-span: how big is the school, by the way? >> guest: twenty-five thousand. c-span: is it a state school? >> guest: yes. it's part of the lsu system. c-span: i counted in the front of your book 16 books, plus this one. is that right, 17? >> guest: that sounds pretty good. c-span: which one sold the most? >> guest: gee, i couldn't tell you -- oh, "rise to globalism," certainly, by far. i'm sorry. that's a book on american foreign policy that is widely used as a textbook, and it's now in its ninth printing. it's been for 18 years a standard, really, around the english-speaking world. it's been a fabulous -- it put five kids through college for me. c-span: i started to say earlier, i've got another book that you did, one of the many that's on former president ni

boy, are they happy did he.h all the injuries they've had, they've really needed his bat in the lineup. a two strike count on brian schneider who is 1-2 and has picked up an rbi. this has been a very tough night for the orioles so far. had a chance in the fourth inning to get out of it maybe. four runs were scored by the mets. an error on the ground ball that -- ground ball that brian roberts had that probably would have been a double play. that one down the line in left. reimold going over to get it. making the turn heading for second, schneider. he's going to be in with a double. he's got a 2-3 ballgame for the number eight hitter. >> jim: happy to be playing. back problems we mentioned leg problems. boy, if you're a catcher and your legs hurt and your back hurts, the s. i. joint. here is a double swing. he gets one up in the strike zone and slice it down the line. nolan reimold will run it down. now everybody -- that's the way they play castillo. like we played maury wills in the '66 series. shallow and left.

boy, he's mad. manny acta coming out to calm down his pitcher. >> rob: right before that, i almost said out loud. i was thinking it to myself that cristian guzman or ronnie belliard should just go in and say something to him. say something to him in spanish. get him to calm down. they're the veterans. he's still kind of a young guy. he could be a big asset to this ball club. >> bob: flies it to center. right there is willie harris. after all that, the nats still a chance to put this game away. patterson, guzman, johnson ahead. ÷pñ)y

finally, the big boys are getting a parade would have been nice if they got it -- finally, the big boys are getting it. it would have been nice if the big boys got it five years ago. the scary part, i think, is this. this "the times" and "post" wait long enough, you're going to see "the washington post -- st. louis edition" and they're going to hire 10-12 people to create an advanced usa today version of a local, is on paper -- local, zoned paper. it will give you a page of local metro coverage. because they're offering you their international and national coverage and you cannot get that on line anymore for free, because they're going to back up on that, you are going to see this sort of modern version of the the zoned papers which were previously regional or metro news. that is the worst case scenario. i would rather see locally owned papers survive. i do not know if that is going to happen. i do think that journalism has a value and eventually that value will restore itself. it is bigger cannot make it through the transition, we're going to see new start-ups. they're going to pay for

this just reminds me that these are the good old boys. the interracial abortions -- it just reminds me of how these good old boys act. they just can't do anything they want to do. they get together in there -- they can just do anything they want to do. they get together in their little clubs, and all this is just coming out in the open. host: thank you, calvin. inside "the wall street journal," "when south carolina governor mark sanford stood choking back tears in front of a horde of reporters on wednesday, explaining his mysterious disappearance and apologizing for an extramarital affair, he said he would lay it out and let the chips fall where they may. those chips may fall -- may ricochet be on the governor's mansion in colombia. the news conference became the latest symbol of the struggles vexing his republican party as another of its rising stars was up ended by a sexual indiscretion." it was last year in that we learned about john edwards, as he spoke to what bob woodruff on abc's "nightline" program. >> 2006, two years ago, i made

nice play by the ball boy. dan uggla one of the main stais here in florida.ster continues to turn over. he's in his fourth season now 29 years old. they develop players very well and give them a chaps. as soon as any of the players get -- and give them chance. as soon as any of the players get to a point where they make too much money, they look to replace them. their hope is when they get their new stadium, that things will turn around. the problem is that stadium won't be ready till 2012. they still have two more years here. there's the prototype. the retractible roof which in this climate as we've seen the last couple of days will definitely be a benefit. 2-2 on uggla. sharply hit foul. >> buck: yeah, it might create a new revenue stream for this ball club. more than anything, it gives the fans the ability to know there's going to be a game played without any interruption. they have a very widespread fan base and people can come from west palm beach north and down in the keys to the south and the stadium will be in scown town miami at the site of the old o

>> oh, boy, i can imagine, can imagine, and being a young person... and being a young person and having that kind of responsibility, you also talk about that you saw your friends going off to college, and you having, beginning to bring forth a family and that was tough for you to see. >> yes, it was, because you know, some of my very good friends had gone off and i was having children and you know, a housewife, a farmer, because we lived sometimes away from the capital city working at booker washington institute, on a farm nearby there and would come and visit and i would be so, you know, embarrassed sometimes, felt so sorry for myself, there i was. but then again, that perhaps also gave me a great motivation, because, i knew at some point i had to make up and catch up. i couldn't stay in this condition, and that also, you know, strengthened and inspired me to say, well, you know, when this first opportunity comes i'm going to use that opportunity to -- to its maximum and that is -- accelerated, my whole effort to become a professional, to become educ

this was a very, very special day for a bunch of kids at boys town in washington, d.c.u ask, because manny acta was there and manny was talking about, to the youngsters, life is a lot like baseball. >> life is about choices. the quarterback, you run the ball or do you pass the ball? basketball, either you shoot or pass. baseball, you either bunt or you let the guy hit. choices. everywhere you go. excuses are not valid. it doesn't matter where you're growing up, who you're growing up around. no. if you grew up with somebody, and they're taking the wrong turn, you don't have to follow them. you can still be buddies and you can still be friends. you don't have to follow them. it is a choice you have to make. if you think intensive is expensive, check out ignorance. that's a lot more expensive being ignorant than the education because there's a higher price to pay by being ignorant. >> ray, don't you wish that every single person watching our show tonight could visit with manny acta like you and i do around the batting cage, have a chance to sit down, go one-on-one with thi

a boy or a girl i interrupted excitedly, a boy, amy said. i rushed off to her room. amy trailing behind me. the young mother slept on her bed, her boyfriend attentively by her head although they looked more like prom dates than parents it was an enduring image. where's the baby, i whispered to amy who still followed. there, amy answered. her voice flat as she pointed across the room to a small bundle on the other cot. not going to make it, she said. what, i said? i put on gloves and gently unwrapped the blanket. i found lifeless flesh that unleashed from my hand just like the cadaver in medical school. i scooped up the baby cradling my thumb and index finger while his limbs flopped loosely to both sides. consistent with my previous estimates of now 34 weeks, the child was about twice as large as the palm of my hand. it should have been enough time to survive. i inspected the baby with a growing sense of remorse. the wrinkled flesh that rested on my arm had no obvious deformities. his body although minute appeared properly formed. had my use of the medicine to treat h

i did a nasty boy moniker from years ago. that was because of the stuff, not because we were angry young men, although we were, but -- oh-oh. >> johnny: let's take a look again and go oh my goodness. a couple. >> rob: i grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, he was from green witch connecticut. >> that's right. i was from the see you core ski aircraft, pratt and whitney. >> johnny: you were moving pretty good when you came out to the mound. >> rob: eh that silver backed go lil a can get across the felled. and the worst thing johnny is my parents were there, my family, coming down from connecticut, i don't know what got into me when i got on the baseball field. >> johnny: alex gonzalez with a shot to right base hit. bruce will make the turn and stay at second base and the first base hit off of detwiler to alex gonzalez. we're not done, dibs, here comes some more.  >> rob: yeah, eric geld block of the helmet. you context mo that one. that was pretty good. yeah, that was pretty ugly. 

boy, i tell you, if i'm sitting behind those guys. >> rob: they were just down there, and don't give them any more time than they need or deserve. they have the little brooms out, they are sweeping off behind there. i mean i have to say they are very original. >> bob: i would have had the spit ball shooter out by about the 5th inning last night. >> rob: they would never be able to get away with that in places like fenway. people are too kind here in washington. >> bob: zimmerman strikes out here. what happened to jesus colome? >> debbi: he probably has a strained quad. probably day-to-day, bob. >> bob: and then tavarez came up. i would love to see adam dunn swing at anything that's close in this at-bat. he does not need our advice but adam did strike out on a borderline pitch in the 9th when we would rather see him hacking. it was 3-2 delivery and he could have been the potential winning run at first. he gets under that one. it's going to stay in the park. second out. elijah dukes had the ford drive of the game that put the nats up. >> rob: cristian guzman, elijah dukes and nick john

he won the election but boy. [laughter] he won and now he has got to deal with all of this. it is a very interesting campaign to cover because amongst other things barack obama is the best speaker we have had, certainly since jack kennedy and maybe sense-- i don't know who i would list. in the beginning of this country the founders were all great speakers. they were all great idea people. they knew how to communicate and we are saying that again. people during the campaign said, he is just an orator and i thought that was not something to be laughed off. i thought it was kind of in the spirit of tradition in this country, so it is very interesting and as a reporter, it is fun. >> hello, welcome to close-up at the newseum. >> my name is amman and i am from michigan. my question is oftentimes in the news media every election is portrayed as being the most important of our lives and i was wondering which in your career defined the most momentous to cover? >> they are all the most important, when you come down to it. i would just say i'm not sure i would agree that any of them a

boy, he's mad. manny acta coming out to calm down his pitcher. >> rob: right before that, i almost said out loud. i was thinking it to myself that cristian guzman or ronnie belliard should just go in and say something to him. say something to him in spanish. get him to calm down. they're the veterans. he's still kind of a young guy. he could be a big asset to this ball club. >> bob: flies it to center. right there is willie harris. after all that, the nats still a chance to put this game away. patterson, guzman, johnson ahead. ÷pñ)y >> rob: we go to the bott the 11th. it's 1-1 between the blue jays- washington nationals. before this inning before the flienl fly ball out, jesus colome is going to balk right here. see the runner on second. takes an extra step. that is not a balk. he stepped off the rubber and then he moved his shoulder. now jesus goes out to the second base umpire to say why was that a balk? well, i mean, i don't find that wrong -- >> bob: how can you balk if y

that a boy. nice job. willie harris can play anywhere. i often forget -- i've always wanted to look in his locker to see how many gloves he has. longoria 2-7 with a couple of rbis over the weekend. he's just out of the top 10 in home runs with 14. >> bob: he's way up there in rbis. let's look at the nats defense. harris at 3rd, johnson at 1 1st. gonzalez replaces guzman today. dukes plays his third consecutive game starting in the out field. >> rob: detwiler has a fastball, changeup type pitcher. he's got two fastballs. two he throws right there about 90-94 miles per hour. basically a cutter, sinker, a righty. it's going to go away from him. >> bob: we figured longoria would warm up before the nats get out of town. that's three consecutive hits for him after going 0-5. here's carlos pena with three hits and a home run. >> rob: ross has an excellent curveball. >> bob: here it is. pena will do it again inside the 3rd base bag. >> rob: he's saying, if you're going to give me that, i'll take it. we'll see what ben zobrist can do with it. let'

. >> jim: so they're going with the bonus boy. >> gary: so far. >> jim: that's what they used to call >> gary: don't hear that term anymore. that used to be a common term. >> jim: now since the millionaire. >> gary: or multi. >> jim: the first time i ever warmed up for instructional league, they taught me, used to throw, he looked at me and he says, you can always tell the bonus boys, they never want to throw 60 feet. that's all it took. >> gary: fernando tatis has had one at-bat. tatis hit into a double play as he pinch-hit for martinez in the sixth inning. >> jim: that was after base on -- bases loaded walk, and hendrickson made a great pitch. >> gary: got him on the inside corner raising his arms. >> jim: hit it right back up the middle. cora at first, andino almost side armed him right in the forehead. made him get down and they turned the double play. >> gary: tatis down to third, fair ball, it went over the bag. he'll go to second base. reimold over to play it, touched by a fan, it will be a double. so tatis delivers. that will allow the mets to get the potential tying run

that is why i referred to them as the big boys in terms of nuclear weapons. how many questions, 7 or eight or nine? in terms of total commission, we have representative from nine nuclear weapons states. we couldn't have nine because we have so many from north korea. i am sorry. that is correct. we have representatives from seven nuclear weapons states, and we have also representatives from two countries that are non nuclear but have a great deal of interest in this issue, japan and germany, the republic of germany. again, this handout you have is really a summary of the link to your document which is still under preparation. as i said before, it is a work in progress, an interim report, an interim document. we have several issues we have to continue to work on and we will do that between now and the next commission meeting and at the next commission meeting, most likely in october, between that meeting and the end of the year, we need to complete that work so that we will have a finalized plan, action plan, not simply a power point, but a real document that w

boy, josh gets it a lot. >> bob: josh willingham hit by five pitches this year to lead the team. >> rob: real speed. so you think you can play in the big leagues? first, you have to get over that fear of 90 by your head. >> bob: willingham was hit -- that's a breaking ball hit foul, outside third. they are the florida version of the nats and orioles. they play each other every year home and home. >> >> bob: look at what. >> rob: look at what the marlins did last year, won 84 game with 22 million. they evaluated a lot of their minor league system and when they made the juan pierre trade, they got a lot of players from the cubs. that's another way that the indians, rays, marlins have to do business. >> bob: that's a slider just a little bit high. 2-1. joe beimel. >> rob: joe b. >> bob: first save in two years yesterday. >> rob: joe b-eimel. >> bob: the bullpen set up if the nats can take the lead here. willingham seeing a fastball he thought he could lift. and the count's even 2-2. >> rob: last pitch after an elevated breaking ball. an elevated fastball. probably going to go way down and

at that moment, in comes this man carrying a little boy who had been shot. no one was say who shot him. i watched right there. they just put him down and saved his life. >> i appreciate that hopeful note. thank you for the work that human rights watch does. please join me in thanking him. [applause] i will be performing at the comedy club tomorrow night. if anybody has anything you want to ask that we have not gotten to, please feel free to come up. that's not the supreme court has upheld a federal government permit to dump waste from an alaskan gold mine into a nearby lake heat, even though all the fish would be killed. the justices say if the appeals court wrongly blocked the permit on informal grounds. the army corps of engineers granted the permit in 2005. environmental groups challenged the permit, saying it violated the clean water act. also today, they made it easier for parents of special education students to be reimbursed for the cost of private schooling for their children. the court ruled today in favor of a teenage boy from oregon, whose parents

we showed that we can play with the big boys, so we were happy about that as a team. >> landon donovand there are no moral victories here. what do you think? >> no moral victories? no. obviously we're disappointed in the loss, you know, we made it to the final and we got a long way. saying that we can take a lot of the tournament and be proud. like i said, we left everything out on the field, and in the end, it just happened, you know, brazil was the better team, and we got beat and that happens in sports. >> what lessons did you come away with? >> you know, the lessons that we don't just come here the participate in these tournaments anymore. we're now on the world stage and we've showed that we cannot only compete with these wig teams but also beat them. and so we can take a lot away from that and the confidence, you know, going into next next summer's world cup especially. >> how do you think the world now views u.s.a. soccer? >> well, i don't know. i mean, it's been so long we've been fighting for respect, but it doesn't really bother us so much anymore. obviously they're not going

because i said i would. >> do you think those good old boys voted for you? >> it is hard to tell. >> the last thing i saw, a 69% popularity in the state of indiana. how can you resist all these people? here is the "national review," with a big cover story. >> isn't as the most tedious picture you ever saw? my hometown paper had someone ask if i had seen that. i said i have been troubled killing this presidential top. that picture will take care of it. no one would vote for someone who looked like that. that is my story, and i am sticking to it. >> one more little video. >> those big tall tennis shoes. >> those were truly dorky. >> that goes over the dork line every day. he is officially cut off in this conversation. >> who were they? >> that is the apple of my eye, young margaret daniels. that was a few years ago. i think she was with me because -- i think it was primary day, possibly, of 2004. something else a little different with us, you almost never see sherry or one of the girls with me. that is my job, that is what i do. i almost did not run because sh

the legal instruments he created as a teenage boy were -- with no legal training at all are still used, as models in law school today for show business litigation. and if that seems farfetched to any of you, just remember shen went wong and the phoenix steel plants in germany and marilee jones in the mit admissions office. warren buffett as again i spook the world's richest man, began in business at the age of 6, selling ice-cold coca-cola and chewing gum door-to-door in depression-era omaha. that is age 6, by stages he added other businesses to his strain, he sold retrieved golf balls in bulk to the club pro shop. he sifteded the discarded racetrack betting tickets in bulk, searching for winners, accidentally thrown away. he set up a mass production newspaper delivery operation in which he personally could deliver 1500 papers. he rented pinball machines to barber shops and split the take 50/50. and this is all before warren was 15. from the age of 13 he supported himself completely. and by age 18, he had the present-day equivalent of 100 grand in the bank. when the wharton business sc

boy, he is tough. what a job he's doing at the p of the order. on three time, two hits. >> gary: he has a veiled swing, he knows that the more fly balls he hits, the more outs he'll make. he's not a home run guy. that doesn't mean he can't hit home runs, but if he hit, saying you know what? i'm going to get a good pitcho hit, you're able to table the close pitches. and that's what -- able to tae the close pitches. and that's what he's done. he's not the regular shortsto. that's jose reyes, jose reyes is the guy that ignites the offense. >> gary: now a discussion as e bullpen gets active. this is to draw time for the n as they are hustling in the bullpen now. two down, one on. and you've got murphy coming up, but then beltran to follow, and they want to have the ben reay  jason berken has to go further than this next hitter. murphy has struck out twice, d flied to left field. runner goes, throw by wieters is high. and cora gets a stolen base. >> jim: number 6 on the year. and early on in the first inning

with the boys he wants blood with. the his family always find solace in the heroism he showed. in the end, jim came back to normandy for the same reason we all come back. he came for the reason articulated by our -- another former paratrooper that is with us today. when asked why he made the trip, howard said, it is important that we tell our stories. it does not have to be something big. just a little something about what happened so people don't forget. so people don't forget. friends and veterans, we cannot forget. what we must not forget is that the day -- d-day was able to change the course of an entire century. an hour of maximum danger amid the weakest of circumstances, men who thought themselves ordinary found within themselves the ability to do something extraordinary. they fought for their moms and sweethearts back home. for the fellow warriors who came to know his brothers. they fought out of a simple sense of duty. 80 sustained by the same ideals for which their countrymen had once fought and bled for over two centuries. that is the story of normandy. but also the s

the court ruled 6-3 in favor of a teenage boy from oregon is parents sought to have their local soap -- public-school district paid the $52 above the costs to send their sons to private school. they say school districts must pay for a private specialist services if the school does not have appropriate services, regardless of whether the child previously received special- education services through the public school. also, the supreme court upheld a federal government permit to dump waste from an alaskan gold mine into a nearby lake even though all its fish would be killed. by 6-3 vote, the justices said federal appeals court wrongly bought the permit on environmental grounds. the army corps of engineer granted that permit in 2005. environmental groups challenged the permit, saying it violated the clean water act. coming up at 3:00 eastern today, we will be live with a senate republican meeting on energy policy and the possibility of increasing the number of nuclear plants. the senate republican conference will speak with energy analysts. we will have that life here on c-span at 2:00.

boy this offense is just chewing up the oriole pitching in these first two games. kennedy still only one away. batting at .343. and he will take the fastball for a strike. >> buck: doesn't make any difference who you're playing. if you're not making quality pitches to a big league club, you're going to get hit. when the orioles came to town the a's were at .239 as a club and don't look like that type of ball club now. >> gary: they are last in average in the american league. and 11th in runs scored. orioles pitching staff continues to struggle with the second highest e.r.a. talking hitting, the manager. 1-2 on kennedy. runner at 2nd. and the slider's going to miss inside. and count goes 2-2. two walks in the ball game have scored. nope, sorry. all three. berken has walked all three and they've all crossed the plate. 2-2 delivery to kennedy. breaking ball in the air. left center. oh, my. that wasn't a bad pitch but a great piece of hitting. kennedy's going to go to 2nd base. that will score cabrera and 8- 0a's lead. talk about waiting on a pitch. >> buck: watch how

boy, was it ever driven. 442 feet. the nationals trailing by one. not anymore when that ball bounded off the warehouse to make it 2-1 nationals. >> rob: our masn satellite said it was 501 feet, so i don't know who i should believe. >> jim p.: the masn satellite. i didn't know we have one. >> rob: we have masn blimps and helicopters, we have a spy saddle. well, we're in washington. >> jim h.: andino fouls it back. a lot easier pitching. i don't think you change your style, especially when you've gone through seven innings, only given up four hits. but a four run lead. ball's coming out of the hand nice and easy. don't change anything. the pitch count well under control. >> rob: he's our leader of the staff. >> jim h.: there's a base hit heading towards the gap. andino heads for second. he is in with a lead-off double. so he was able to split the defense and robert andino has his first hit. fans have something to cheer about here in baltimore. the lead-off runner in scoring position. >> rob: he's got about 95 pitches, and he's been averaging between 9

brad bergesen, boy, what a savior he has been. he'll make his 13th start tomorrow his e.r.a.00. a 4-2 record. he's getting better and better. each time out he seems to make more adjustments and he'sth really settled in effectively in this rotation. >> jim: here is tim wood about to make his major league debut. he finally gets into a game. sean west was lift ford a pinch- hitter after going six scoreless innings. there's a line drive right to uggla off the bat of andino and that's how it's going tonight for the orioles. >> buck: it sure is. tim wood, he was ducking out of the way. wasn't quite sure where that first big league pitch was going to end up. watch the pitcher's reaction. ducks out of the way, but it's right at the second baseman, dan uggla. >> jim: out of tucson, arizona. he was drafted by the marlins in the 44th round in 2002 out of junior college in arizona in his hometown of tucson. how about that. a 44th-round pick. salses salazar pinch-hitting for -- oscar salazar pinch- hitting for mark hendrickson. takes a trying. -- takes a strike. there's a bouncer towards

i'm going to go girl-boy, girl-boy. so that i'm not accused of bias in any way. all right. and i won't be able to get to every single question, but i will try to get to as many as possible. so there are microphones in the audience. if you can wait until the microphone comes to you, that way everybody will be able to hear your questions. stand up and introduce yourself as well. that will be helpful. this young lady right here. >> good afternoon, mr. president. i am paul eth gear and. as a seff employed individual, i spend approximately $8,000 annually on my health insurance premium. and it's a $2,000 deductible, no dental, no vision coverple. as my business is declining because of the economy we have, i'm now in a situation where i'm taking savings to pay for food and housing because i don't want to lose my health insurance. and i am a supporter of a single payor system over any other smts because i do -- thank you. i do believe that it will meet your three criteria and be the most economically feesible plan that we have. . . that is why i support single payer. i ask that is

i'm a medical professional and a breast cancer survivor and a grandmother of an autistic boy. i've seen problems from both sides in many ways. and the mammoth in the room that no one is talking about is something that president obama mentioned in his campaign. and that is, in medicare alone, for every $6 actually spent on health care, the insurance companies are getting $11. the mammoth in the room is the profits of the insurance companies. that's why our health care is costing 40% more per person in the united states as in the next most expensive country. host: in fact, we have a tweet from france that says, no one mentioned france in the health care debate, it's ranked number one and is private and public insurance. >> live now to the senate subcommittee hearing on high speed rail. we'll hear from the heads of am track, the federal railroad administration and others the witnesses are in place in the hearing room, we're rating -- waiting for the subcommittee chairman, mr. lautenberg, and the full committee chairman, jay rockefeller is there on your screen. we expect this to

it means we have as many boys and girls smoking as participating athletics in our high schools. we have as many kids smoke as playing football, basketball, track, field, baseball -- combined. there are that many students endangering their health as there are staying healthy by playing the four most popular high school sports in the country. remember, i didn't mention soccer but it's popular now but we could include that, too. they outmatch that by far. it's time to act. but should we be surprised? every year the tobacco industry pores hundreds of millions, if in the billions of dollars into marketing, designed to get more people, including children, because they know that's where their market is, to start smoking. nine out of ten regular smokers in america started when they were kids. some of them as young as eight or nine years old. these marketers are very good at their jobs. and there's no question about that. but it's time we do our job. bipartisan bill that senator kennedy and the help committee has delivered does a lot of good. it helps keep american children and their fam
