carolina takes over.

carolina has it's first touchdown of the night. after the viewing on fourth and goal gets the touchdown from decori brirmingham. the panthers have the first touchdown of the evening. >> stan: i don't know how they didn't call holding. he got tackled by dante. he just grabbed him and bowled him. >> gerry: the extra point try. it's blocked. the penalty flag is down. frank walker came from the left side of the ravens' front. they are going to call him for jumping the gun. >> stan: will they go for two? >> referee: offside, defense, number 41. half the distance to the goal, retry. >> gerry: good intention by frank walker. bad execution. >> stan: you hear when the ball snaps. i could have blocked that if they let me go early. >> gerry: if you go with a head start and nobody with block you. >> stan: they don't want to go in overtime. >> gerry: with 11:34 to play, it's a 1 touchdown game now. ravens 17-carolina 10 on the raven's gameday network. hey i'm worried about mrs. lowenberg next door. why? i don't know she's wandering around the l

he's missed lewis for carolina.t adds yardage. >> gerry: a handoff. >> stan: he falls down on his face. >> gerry: even the great feet get tangled up every so often. >> stan: i guess you got give him that. for guys to make plays, you can't blame anybody. his right foot got caught on the left foot and went down to the ground. you got to give them the lee way. >> gerry: to ray rice. a 1st down to the 39 yard-line. that's uncoachable. >> stan: that's why. you got give t. if he falls down a couple of times trying to make the moves or go backwards, he'll make plays like this. he gets down field. that ball was thrown at line of scrimmage. he gets off 10 yards on his own. >> gerry: the ravens leading receiver out backfield. he's a big threat for cam cameron in many way this is year, ray rice. to le'ron mcclain and he muscles his way out of the crowd. a little different running style between ray rice and le'ron mcclain. >> stan: all of a sudden you're back on your heels and here comes le'ron mcclain. >> gerry: ray rice is da

cuff south carolina has an interesting constitution where the governor and south carolina -- south carolina has an interesting constitution where the governor and lieutenant governor run separately. they have butted heads plenty of times in the past. by offering not to run in 2010 if, the lieutenant governor may wind up disarming his critics. shepard: does anyone have any idea of what the governor thinks he might be able to accomplish and what he might be saying in what, 19 minutes? >> within the hour. we can all look at his track record over recent weeks. he had no plans to step down. he is yet to respond to the lieutenant governor, but we should have some response within the hour. shepard: that news conference is just 18 minutes away as we go to south carolina and the embattled governor, mark sanford. his soul mate will not be there, but he will be answering questions. senator kennedy, simply put one of the most influential men in all of the world. he helped barack obama earned the title of president. a look at that part of history when we continue in a moment. here you go. whoa! that's s

south carolina law doesn't allow that.es you can use state aircraft or you can use air force one and reimburse the state or the nation. you can't do that in south carolina, there's no provision in our law for that. it's the cumulative effect. and again, i don't think that the flying business class, flying first-class, are things that would get him kicked out of office, even though our state law does prohibit those things. it's the question of how much adds up. and i don't think we're there at this point. but this is the first time where it seems to me like there legitimately are things that need to be investigated and that could land him in serious trouble, legally. >> what do you make of this, gene, because presidents don't have to reimburse anybody for anything. they have to pay for political trips. when they fly to some ranch in california or the western white house, wherever they set up their digs, they always charge the government for that. is this all tied into the fact that he had a girlfriend, or has a girlfriend i

that's the headquarters of the north carolina republican party. that building is named after art pope because art pope is a multi-millionaire far right activist who has given the republican party in north carolina so much money over the years they could think of no grander gesture than to name their headquarters building after him. you know, just like other average middle class americans. the national chairman of americans for prosperity is the 19th richest man in the world. a man named david koch. he and his brother run koch industries, the largest privately held oil company in this country and prolific founders of far right wing causes. they're just your average middle class americans. who also happen to be the 19th richest man in the world. americans for prosperity in turn runs a group called patients united now and patients first. these groups are currently busing people across the country to, you guessed it, demonstrate against health care reform. this is what these groups do. they're experts at fake grass roots campaigns that promote corpora

you're from south carolina.uple things that they're good so we get back to substantial. i know that's where you want to go. is it good to try to require young people who are healthy to join into some kind of health insurance like we did with car drivership? is it good to get everybody into this together so the young and healthy share the cost of health care with the old and unhealthy? is that a good thing? >> yes. individual mandate makes sense. yes, it does. >> what about the idea of subsidizing in some way health insurance and getting people who have less than an average income but they're not poverty stricken to start participating in their own health care by paying something and getting some help in doing so? is that a good idea? in other words, get people -- >> that makes a lot of sense. >> okay. what about the idea of encouraging -- not mandating but encouraging employer contributions to health care? >> well, what i'd like to do, it may make sense if you can perpetuate a system of employer-provided insuran

a new poll showing a divide in south carolina. many saying the governor is not fit for office. >> that's a disgusting thing that took place. but i turned my life completely around. and you're going to find the most powerful story coming from the witness, the victim. you wait. >> he held the young girl captive for 18 years. disturbing questions including how he got away with it and could the girl have been saved sooner? good afternoon everyone. we're live in new york. david shuster has the day off. we want to start with breaking news regarding the death investigation of michael jackson. we just got official word from the coroner that michael jackson died from acute propofol intoxication and that his death has been officially ruled a homicide. our pop culture correspondent for msnbc.com, we heard this information leaked out a few days ago but now it is official. >> correct. a lot of people are saying, what ls new about this? what's new is that what we had before was just information that came from the search warrant affidavit. this

already have here in north carolina. education should be a state and local issue. the federal funds we have, rather than putting people behind desks and paying their salary, we need to get the money down locally, back to the states. >> just another comment, we are not afraid of accountability in education. but there should be some fairness to it as well. >> the accountability that we have in north carolina is good. no child left behind -- the governor of texas who look at education reforms across the country and and decided that testing and accountability was good so they implemented it in texas. that plan was based off of the north carolina plant -- plan. when the governor of texas became president, he made that the national model. well we are have it here in north carolina. it is redundant and expensive. good teachers are always in favor of accountability. i appreciate you coming out as saying your peace. we have two more left. >> i would like to say that i am proud to call you my congressman. my question for you is th

and that's moving to north carolina and south carolina for severe weather.n, d.c., also rain, stretching into roanoke, virginia. they had plenty of rainfall back into michigan over the weekend. about five inches of rainfall. this is not too far from the flint area. more than five inches fell over the weekend, and they have floodwaters. they do not have any rain in the forecast until tuesday of next week, so they are very grateful to get a chance to dry out. robin? >> thank you. >>> a man is facing six months in jail for yawning -- okay, he stretched out and yaund inside an illinois courtroom. he has been behind bars since july 23. that's when a judge said he was in contempt of court for yawning while his cousin was being sentenced. a prosecutor called the yawn loud and boisterous. he could get out tomorrow if a judge accepts his apology. yawning! >>> people crying out about health care reforms were pretty respectful, but a guard had to be called in on this one. >>> and a college campus, thousand they're trying to keep students out of debt. @÷@÷@v@v . >>> goo

and, north carolina, you are still in it. look at the cone, cape cod, you are still in it. you are right in the middle of the cone as a category 1 possible hurricane for the middle of the weekend. but what do we have for today? we have some rain showers over parts of florida. we also have some much-needed rainfall into a drought-stricken houston, in beaumont, all the way down here. severe thunderstorm watch for you. could be some twind and hail in the cell later on today. other than that, we aren't looking at too much texas rainfall where we really need more of it, back out here to the west as well. we will keep watching the hurricane tracks, kyra, because the commuputers are still runni. they aren't all that together yet for now as we get farther up to the northeast part of the united states. you see one takes it not that far from delaware. the one miss ig the united states altogether. it will take a while to work it out in the computer models. >> thanks, chad. >>> you've got to think a

a new north carolina poll by public policy polling finds that the percentage of north carolina voters who say president obama wasn't born in the u.s. or they're not sure if he was, is 46%. 46% of north carolina voters think obama might be secretly foreign, and he, therefore, might not really be president. among republicans in north carolina, it's worse. the percentage of republican voters in north carolina who say barack obama was not born in the u.s. or they're not sure, 76%. more than three-quarters of north carolina republicans think obama might not really be president. more than three-quarters, more than three-quarters, more than three-quarters of them. but here's the additional detail that might make your raised eyebrows turn into a furrowed brow. this huge majority of north carolina republicans say either obama wasn't born in the u.s. or they're not sure, right. the president, of course, was born in hawaii. well, whoever the genius is that put this poll together, i salute you because i never would have thought to ask this as the followup question -- by the way, do you believe th

i can go by car in south carolina. what can i go get insurance from the state of south carolina or any other state? different states have different mandates on their health care, for minimums of care, and that may mean a longer hospital stays but it would cost you more money. why don't you have a variety of plans to choose from across state lines? real competition. insurance companies do not want that competition. after all, north carolina, more than half of the answer is marketplaces are controlled by one entity. but cross blue shield, and they now want to compete against across lucille of another state. they do not want to have that competition -- against a blue cross blue shield of another state. they do not want that competition. say your name and where you are from. >> walter campbell, cast and counted. a common understatement that you work for us. it seems to me, watching many of the media accounts from across the country, some of your colleagues have forgotten that they work for us. now want my question. it has

carolina around charleston, too. none of this is associated with danny. ocean city got friends out there. it's still mighty fine. danny out here, and because of the circulation around it, you can see almost all of it is out to the east. there's now a tropical storm watch out from around cape hatteras all the way south along the outer banks of north carolina. there's the latest position. winds are 45 miles per hour. every indication continues to be that it will stay safely, safely off the coast, but still bringing some heavy suffrf. it will move into new england and cause nasty weather around parts of new england. so tomorrow morning that humidity comes in, and as we go through the day with the humid flow we have, i think more showers and possibly afternoon thundershowers, and then as we get into late on saturday, there is what's left of danny continuing to move off. so overnight for the remainder of the evening, we continue to see the clouds and scattered showers around. mperatures when you get up tomorrow morning wi

finally, a south carolina woman is $2 million richer. and, no, she didn't win the lottery. in fact, she won a lawsuit against her dentist, who was supposed to remove three of her teeth. instead, he pulled 16. so a full set or not, $2 million. definitely guarantees a pretty big smile. >>> bronx bombers bomb boston. and a twin smacks twin homers in one inning. >>> plus, in a game filled with bizarre plays, this one just qualified as, well, you know, run of the mill. your early morning sports headlines are straight ahead. >>> with hurricane bill racing through the canadian maritimes, the weather on the east coast will be a lot calmer today. your regional forecast is coming up. you're watching "early today." >>> good morning. if you're just waking up, this is "early today." in sports, there's been a lot of talk about home runs flying out of the new yankees stadium this year. the big problem for the boston red sox last night, the yankees were making them fly in bunches out of boston fenway park as well. here's nbc's fred roggin with an early look at all your sports headlines. >>

the string continues from kentucky to north carolina, south carolina, and then two robberies in tennessee just last week. what fbi agents say they find surprising is the blatant disregard for hiding his identity. >> reporter: in this surveillance video, the alleged robber can be seen casing a bank in fletcher, north carolina, the second known bank to be robbed. if you look closely, you can see him speaking into a walkie-talkie. they think he also used a wireless phone headset in the third heist. those two robberies have prompted them to explore the possibilities of an accomplice. they say bank robberies are not as lucrative. usually, robbers stealing to feed a drug habit. >> you have an individual going into a bank with a gun in a reckless manner. now, he might be on drugs and strung out on drugs. so that makes it even more imperative to get this individual off the street before anybody gets hurt. >> reporter: in an attempt to get this robber off the street, the fbi has placed digital bill board ads across eight southern states. >> we try to reserve the billboards for the more mobile, mor

by clip we mean maybe the outer banks of the carolinas. danny's path could change a lot between now and then. >>> 1,000 california firefighters are battling a wildfire in the angeles national forest. with low humidity and 100-degree temperatures, they're in for a tough day. the fire has burned 750 acres. picnickers, campers and about 18 boy scouts were evacuated from the area. a voluntary evacuation is in effect for a small town near the san gabriel river. >>> andre bower is calling for the resignation of mark sanford. he's been under scrutiny since admitting a yearlong affair in june with a woman in argentina. there are also lingering questions about whether his use of the state plane for personal travel was reimbursed. in a news conference the lieutenant governor says he can no longer support governor sanford. >> now, however, things have changed. regrettably we've reached a point where we must all put the interests of the people of south carolina first. it is in my opinion that the best interest of the people of south carolina can no lo

wilmington, in north carolina, are watching as to moves in that direction. as far as its pass, we are expected it to head toward the north carolina coast as it gets tomorrow into early saturday. with that being said, it us a chance of heavy downpours, even though it's expected to move out to sea. while we won't get a direct hit from danny, we don't expect, at least, we could still see very heavy rain, especially watch to the eastern shore. certainly riptides will be very strong indeed. this is the way things look, as far as timing things out on the future scan model. you see a chance of showers, a better chance tomorrow as we get more the influence of danny moving in our direction. this is from the frontal boundary to the north and west us. but then you see the showers moving in from the south at around 6:00 p.m. saturday, and into the 10:00 p.m. hours becoming more pervasive through the area as far as the rain is concerned. the eastern shore getting bulk the heaviest rain and continues to be the case as the system moves north and east on saturday through th

i'm scott and i live in shelby, north carolina.first of all, we had it this debate back in 1993, 1994. we were assured by the republican party that competition would take its course and solve our medical insurance and issues. since then i have seen my premiums with my employer one year 2004, to those of five increased by 100%. and every year since then it has gone up. co-pays have gone up. we have probably gone through four or five different insurance companies. when my first child was born we received a bill for that that was outrageous. the insurance company paid far less than what was billed for that procedure. recently i was hospitalized for one@@@@@@@@@@ @ @ @ @ @ with hospital stay and doctors and what not. so i have become concerned about, first of all, what our doctors and hospitals charging white is not the true cost of the state of the visit, and that is one issue. the other is, i will just -- i guess i am leaning towards the single-pay public. ultimately, we have to put our hands together. , why can't we figure out this

and among republicans in north carolina, it was worse. 76% of north carolina republicans said they didn't know or were not sure that obama was born in the u.s. so the headline here? more than three-quarters of north carolina republicans say that barack obama might be secretly foreign. therefore, might secretly not really be president. now, why does a headline like that from a specific poll about a specific state make national news? well i'm glad you asked. it's because the people taking this poll were such geniuses that they thought to ask the perfect followup question. since the president was born in hawaii, after asking people whether or not they thought he was born in the u.s., they next asked whether or not these folks know that the united states actually includes a place called hawaii. are you aware that hawaii is a u.s. state? when asked if hawaii is part of the u.s., 12% of self-identified conservatives in north carolina said no or they're not sure. this story, this poll result is true. what i said last night was right. we just posted the wrong thing on the screen. and you know wha

they were separated in different states, north carolina and south carolina and they worked after the civil war to find each other. they were not successful in finding the sister, but they found all the boys and they literally walked plantation to plantation to collect the family. beautiful. and the last one was reverend john hood, mr. hood's father. and because he was afraid to escape, they had to wheel on the back of a wagon a mattress. they opened the mattress, put mr. hood's father in and sewed it back up and they left, and mr. hood, until he was a teenager, was always afraid to go back to south carolina because he was afraid the boss man was looking for him, right. which goes to, again, there are these epiphany moments,s where we talk about how slavery is the root cause of the breakdown in the black family, right? but everything -- i looked for it. i looked for it, i expected it, i asked questions based on that. and every interview led me into a completely different direction. and one story, which the title of the book "sugar of the crop" where i talk about where -- i asked mr. h
