and then you see cooperation in the last round, and you cooperate again. and then since -- and then you're winning, you stay on that strategy. >> so you essentially want to learn from your mistakes. >> exactly. >> so nash was actually solving this as a pure math problem, but in fact it has an evolutionary context, is that right? >> that's right. so in 1973, an english evolutionary biologist, john maynard smith, rediscovered the nash equilibrium and called it an evolutionary stable strategy. and he was particularly interested in what limits aggression. and it turns out that if you write down a simple game, you can show why it's often the case that more passive, restrained strategies evolve. and the game that he wrote down was called the hawk-dove game. >> imagine we have two populations, one aggressive and one passive. hawks will always fight over a resource and doves will not fight under any circumstances. when a dove meets a hawk, the dove always backs down and gives up the resource to the hawk. and when a hawk fights a hawk over a resource, the conflict

only one thing is needed from an american russian cooperative partnership that is cooperation against international terrorism which is growing and which is a threat to both of us and cooperation on ending the political ration of nuclear weapons it's not just iran it's another four or five countries they could obtain a nuclear weapon very quickly remember that in the beginning to or three countries had nuclear weapons now many and increasingly many have in the world is much more dangerous today than it was when the soviet union ended but that is such an unthinkable reality in the united states that our political class won't deal with that reality we need a russian american leadership that agrees to cooperate if nothing else on these two things but they're not cooperating now they are not cooperative so so what we need what we need is more than words right but listen so so instead of the medvedev a bomb you know that we tell them and we're going to get it put it in whatever era and in a couple of days does it really matter i mean for russian american relations who wins will it make a di

"the happeningover" made him a star. and tonight, bradley cooper tells us what made him take on a risky new role. >>> and, standing up for heroes. bruce springsteen helps pay tribute to our wounded warriors. i'll follow one kur ray use warrior on a path to face a new reality. >> announcer: from the global resources of abc news, with terry moran, cynthia mcfadden and bill weir in new york city, this is "nightline," november 8th, 2012. >> good evening, i'll bill weir. well, today in arizona, a 77-year-old man took his first free breath in 38 years. of course, people leave prison every day in this country, but what makes this moment extraordinary are the twists and turns that preceded it. the double homicide, the exwife's accusations, the desperate decades spent trying to prove innocence. abc's dan harris has been following this story for years, and brings us the very latest in this "nightline" investigates. >> reporter: you are looking at bill macumber's first breaths of freedom, after serving 38 years for a double murder

two years ago, malik set up a milk cooperative here. he says it strengthens his community's solidarity. >> we meet once a week. if that's not possible, we try every two weeks. we discuss problems and find solutions. through these meetings, hearts come together, and when hearts come together there's no room for bad people. then security comes automatically. >> the cooperative is one of fourteen in the eastern province of nangarhar. they all belong to the umbrella organization khatiz dairy union. their founding was supported by the united nations. the organization is also helping to fund a new milk processing plant. in afghanistan such investments are vital in the war against terrorism. they provide jobs. people who are earning money don't need to fight. there are many women in the cooperatives: milk processing is one of the few jobs they're allowed to do in conservative afghanistan. the milk union sends women to train the villagers, giving courses on such subjects as improving hygiene. >> the women here occupy more powerful positions in

the two leaders also agreed to boost military cooperation. vietnam is engaged in territorial disputes with china in the south china sea. it's keen to bolster defenses amid china's growing maritime presence. >>> and that's going to do it for us this week. thanks for watching. we'll see you again next week on "asia 7 days."

does he cooperate because he's up for reelection or does he not cooperate because he's worried about a conservative primary challenge? john boehner, the house leader, he might want to cooperate but he's got 230 plus republicans all of whom are taking a different message from this election, some of whom were reelected because they said they don't want to cooperate. the president's motivation, he wants to get this so-called fiscal cliff out of the way so he can work on the bigger issues nancy talked about: energy, immigration. so that's what motivates him. in the end, the players didn't change. the question is whether their motivations did. >> pelley: john, thank you very much. the big story in the northeast wasn't politics today but the nor'easter that just blew in. the same places that were swamped by sandy are getting lashed tonight by high winds, rain, snow, and an angry sea that threatens to flood the shoreline all over again. more evacuations have been ordered and new jersey governor chris christie may have had the best line when he said that he was waiting for the locusts and th

i think it's looked at nationally because we have souch excellent cooperation with our cooperating agencies. once it reaches that point, the team will come in and assist the local jurisdiction to run that incident. when we start having multiple fires in a certain area, then we get into what we call area command. i think that provides the overview. >> i talked a little bit about mou's and relationships with the marines. maybe we can talk about how is the national guard and dod resources and capabilities integrated into the command and control at the fire and also the supporting ops centers whether it be the gac or other centers down there. maybe our military personnel can talk about that, or ray. >> it's important to note that we are the supporting effort to cal fire and we get called in when they are basically out of assets. we are working for cal fire, they are the incident commanders, we follow their coordination, typically we're the last ones in and the first ones out. we do have an on-going relationship with cal fire, i'm in contact with cal fire all the time. we have good situational a

even though it's all about cooperation, sometimes independence comes into the conversation. the last thing i would touch on is it's personal. by that i mean i know a lot of people in this room i can call and depend on if there's an emergency in san francisco. they know me, they know what i do, i saw them all the time, we know what our roles are. we had a little mini exercise about a month ago with a minor pipe break in san francisco where we exercised these relationships. i won't talk about all the meet and greet opportunities to get to know each other. i won't go into detail on all the areas, but we do work together on a lot of forums and it does come down to relationships in a lot of these areas of cooperation. >> thank you. mr. angelus. >> good afternoon. we at verizon wireless we believe our most important responsibility to make sure our network is not only available, but reliable. so to address the question of resiliency, i would like to cover 3 important points that we do day-to-day to make sure our network is available and ready to use for the public. no. 1 is back-up

tried to smile and historical linkages to build on economic cooperation on the scientific research and development and on making sure that. we invest into each other's economy we also take advantage of some of the cars the relative size of the economy and our job digic looking. to strengthen this tells even further boba but russia russia should be interested russian business russian government should be interested in in expanding cooperation and then in turning these these friendly ties into business because there's a new estimate that it might cost up two hundred twenty billion to build all the needed power plants in your country is that a true testament where i am country we are the biggest and the most diverse economy in the continent of africa with think because of our do start to look asian if you were to respond to infrastructure build that our president had announced in the state of the nation. in february of this year where we will in the next coming three years be spending eight hundred fifty billion rands on infrastructure build there's no moving forward without taking care o

because cooper's got substantial business in that area. >> cooper, as we've seen in a number of our investoronferences, has larger content. working directly with utilities. things like pole transformers, important products in some of the unit substations. those are areas where obviously there's been a lot of damage here over the last couple days. as you get to the individual buildings and you get to the switch gear that you find in the basements, and which in many cases have sustained a lot of water, the network protecters are used in part of the grid there in new york city. if you think about some of the transformers in residential areas. you think about that box that you got your circuit breakers in, eaton would be involved in those areas. we have a broad array throughout the electrical power chain. of product and exposure. for those data centers that have gone through water damage as well, we would be involved in that activity of helping them get back operating as well. >> before the hurricane, i know there were a lot of things that were in your release that we have to think about. you ta

it was deja vu for cooper who experienced the same thing yesterday, live on the air. >> whoa!>> reporter: over the weekend israel was targeting hopes of hamas activists one strike took out 10 members of one family, four were children thousands attended their funeral today. at the same time dozens of hamas rockets fired into israel, one hit an empty school. >> i very much hope over the coming days we can achieve cessation on a basis that is sustainable. >> reporter: an israeli official says his country wants a diplomatic solution. prime minister netanyahu is stockpiling tanks and troops along the border the leader of hamas does not sound ready to compromise. >> we will not accept any israeli -- they committed, second cease-fire should be with accepting our demands. >> reporter: the death toll so far palestinian officials say 97 people have died, another 750 wounded in gaza. israeli officials say three people are dead and 68 are wounded. >> if you are flying out of oakland international airport tonight or tomorrow, a port worker strike could affect you. workers are ready for a 2

cooper was being reintroduced to the world. i started the movie on his back. >> rose: we conclude this evening with a conversation about golf with nick faldo who has a new book with golf instruction. it's called "a swing for life." >> you stand and you think, okay, this feels really tough right now" and your stomach's going and you've got to worken it but then you say to yourself "this is why you belted those golf balls. now you've thrown yourself in the deep end and can you wriggle out of it?" and if you do obviously it's a wonderful feeling to know that now i sit back 15 odd years since my last big win or 25 since celebrating and just -- fortunately i can now hit the word "gratitude" and go, wow, i had it. i had it in my hands, my heart, and my head to go out there and play and win. >> rose: robert de niro, bradley cooper, david o. russell and nick faldo when we continue. captioning sponsored by rose communications from our studios in new york city, this is charlie rose. >> rose: when david o. russell first read matthew quick

i know that we have seen a great deal of cooperation between the county transportation authority and the sfmta and i think that it's important for us to continue those efforts. and one of the things that i wanted to see next year is to -- and focus more on how we improve some of the coordination that is taking place among the various city agencies, especially around some of the major projects. i thought, you know, in the last few months we have seen exactly how that coordination, that cooperation has worked well. we also have seen examples of how it hasn't. and, so, to the extent that what we as a funding agency can play a role in facilitating and enhancing that cooperation i would like to see that. and that's one of the items i'd like to have at a future meeting, to have a more in-depth discussion and a conversation, really, with all the different agencies that work with the county transportation authority about how we can improve that level of cooperation and corroboration. i think it will lead to greater efficiencies in how some of these projects are delivered. so, that's it unles

our washington bureau reporter has more on how the spirit of cooperation is. in the nation's capital. >> we have heard about the. -- spirit of cooperation, but talks could fall anywhere on the scale between compromise and confrontation. >> we say we want to work on solutions. >> i am open to compromise in new ideas. >> i remain optimistic. >> we want an agreement, but not just lip service. both sides agree the government needs to bring more money in. the question is how to get to that growth. >> there are no barriers here to sitting down and beginning to work through the process. >> the white house says the plan will push $1 trillion on wealthy and businesses paid >> that will not break necks. they will still be wealthy. >> that is a sticking point for republicans. >> we do not understand why raising tax rates is the solution. >> there is incentive for both sides to come off the table. if we read off of the fiscal cut, which could lead to another recession. the president will talk to civil rights and advocacy groups about the same topic, similar to topics -- d

possible yet the biggest praise of all came from a staunch romney supporter of cooperation for the president i did states has been outstanding the president has been all over this he deserves great credit if you think right now i give a damn about presidential politics that you don't know me looking to also score political points republican candidate mitt romney rebranded his victory rally in ohio into a relief a vent for sandy victims. to stop the police because. they . are still being very close thank you but while the candidates attempt to feature sandy in their quest for votes her victims are too busy piecing their lives back together below thirty ninth street has become known as the dark side of manhattan hundreds of thousands have been surviving without electricity heat and hot water for more than five days the traffic lights do not work and most businesses have remained closed city officials say that power will be restored to the borough by election day the same promise has not been made to millions of voters living in other parts of new york and nearby states on staten island polling

owed to nicaragua it was no aid no cooperation that was merely an allowance they paid us with passing it for aid and cooperation with their would and it came with tight conditions attached to work so we cannot talk of nicaragua as a sovereign and independent nation as long as we remain critically dependent upon the united states and its current political trends its prevalent frame of mind and the amount of influence radical groups enjoy there at any given moment of time because those are the groups that largely determine us foreign policies they are the ones who contest in court all u.s. cooperation programs for the nicaragua and even call for using force against latin american nations at the desk to hand up for our independence but that is why terminating any form out of cooperation is bound to have and negative impact on nicaragua that is exactly what makes it so important for us to ensure that our nation should no longer be dependent upon this sort of conditional cooperation with either the united states well the european union the us as a. pursued a policy of racket all of these a

the cooperative attitude among departments and dt previously founded by earlier civil grand jury has faded and what i have said to that i would actually disagree with that. i think in the last few years there has been improvement and cooperation between departments but still a good chance to achieve. i will say partially disagree. finding number 27, a department first perspective, not the city wide perspective, intended in the administrative code has resulted in lack of coordination and communication between the departments and for this i would state agreed. the fact that these projects have taken so long to take forward is the attitude that perminates city agencies. next i also agree and it's difficult to move departments in the same direction. 29, department heads and cio's don't grant the authority for them in the administrative code as governing their own plans and actions. for this i agree. finding 30. neither coit or the cio believe in their ability to enforce these policies and initiatives and i patiently agree with that statement. while coit likes to behave they have the auth
