it was a story in the book of judges, specifically about a judge named deborah. the verse that gets quoted over, and over again in various contexts, in revivalist a context preaching for revival, in a war context, especially in a war context, the curse of mirages. curse of morales, so the angel of the lord. curtis yi bid to inhabitants their of, they come not to the help of the lord, but the help of the lord against the mighty. okay, let's break this down. , first of all. where was mirages? i asked one of my colleagues who was arriving on the book of judges. i asked him a few years ago, where is it? we have no idea. they really did not know that much in the revolutionary period, but they did know that deborah if issue this curse from god because the people, wherever they were, would not fight forgot against the canines. we're not join in the fight. one person who did it join in the fight was -- some of you will remember her story. she was the one who fought for israel by slaying hay army general for the knights, she kind of lured him into the tenth, when he went

alright deborah villalon live force tonight deborah thank you in san francisco all city workers have to be fully vaccinated by november, 1st. which is 10. weeks after the fda authorization in the meantime some city employees could face suspension for failing to disclose whether or not they are vaccinated under current city policy there was already pushed back for more than a dozen city employees over the requirement for workers to provide their vaccination status by the end of july. city says the mandate is in the name of public health. we've had some outbreaks in city employment and i think that really highlights that this is the step that. we need to take as a large employer and i think all employers need to take sanford cities san francisco city workers unions say they're negotiating with the city on how the vaccine mandate willen hold will unfold some of the biggest unions are saying that they want workers to be safe but they also want to be sure that they aren't being unfairly targeted we'll also today a new policy went into effect enrichment requiring all city workers there to

deborah in west chester, ohio, republican. caller: thank you. thank you to the c-span listeners for being open-minded. i notice my concern is where we are going to be in 5-10 years. afghanistan is one of the richest nations in the world in rare earth minerals. there are several critical elements in there? . after 20 years, while we have not been involved in that. china bought $5 billion of mineral rights in coal and oil. they just negotiated a deal in oil. although -- nationbuilding has a connotation work people do not understand it. like they should for our long-term future. it had not been a civilized more democratic nation, they're going to be the future of energy in the world like saudi arabia was for oil. it is inevitable. my concern is that china and russia will control the minerals coming out of this area. the taliban will do the dirty work out of afghanistan. we have to go up against russia and china. they do not care what the taliban govern. -- how the taliban govern. guest: i think she makes a good point. there are rare earth minerals

alright deborah villalon live for us tonight, deborah. thank you. if the us does move forward with booster shots, healthcare workers, people living in nursing homes and older americans could be the first to get them. federal health officials have been looking at whether extra shots for the vaccinated may be needed as early as this fall. several months ago, israel started offering a coronavirus booster to people over 60, who were already vaccinated last week, the fda said people with weakened immune systems can get an extra dose of the pfizer or moderna vaccines as a better to better protect them. as the delta variant continues to search one week after kids return to the classroom students from to oakland schools are under a 10 day quarantine at home due to a coronavirus outbreak. alameda county requires corn teens of a single classes three or more cases of the virus. montclair elementary had five cases in total. it's not clear how many were affected in the classroom. montclair now plans to keep all students in small groups when they're outside of th

tomorrow deborah villalon live horse tonight, deborah. thank you, the plumas county sheriff's department tonight downgraded some evacuation orders as firefighters continue to make progress on the dixie fire. containment went up slightly today to 30% that's up from 27% yesterday, the latest cal fire update about two hours ago shows that the fire has now burned more than 505 acres in plumas butte to hama and lassen counties. we also learned today that the fire has now destroyed more than 1000 buildings. including almost 550 homes. the dixie fire is now the largest single wildfire in california history. an air quality advisory has been issued for tomorrow for the bay area. it comes as wildfire smoke is expected to drift into our area. despite the advisory, the air quality is not expected to be poor enough to exceed federal standards for pollutants and air district officials. don't expect it to prompt a spare the air alert. we're looking at the air quality advisory for tomorrow. also the warm weather that we're seeing in the inland bay valley

deborah plan. one of the things i like to do whenever i talk about barricoon. is to invite the spirits of zornell hurston and oluwale causalai to be with me as i do the best i can to represent them and express what i think they would like for us to know and to understand. and so i also invite i would like to invite you to. evoke those answers to ancestral spirits who would be with us today during this event and throughout the festival. so that we would have there guidance as well as their inspiration and how things unfold. so barricle is the story of oluwale kosala? and zorna, hurston was able to capture his story. when she when on out into the field back in 1927 on behalf of franz boaz and carter g woodson zorno, hurston as many of you might know was reared in eatonville, florida, but she was born here in alabama and noticeable. not very far from tuskegee. and she she went to school at howard university. she acquired her associate degree. um, then she to barnard college. where she majored in english and then she also during a matriculation studied courses in a

ktvu is deborah villalon is live in calistoga tonight, where customers lost power around 6 30 this evening, chief meteorologist bill martin will have a look at the current conditions. but first we begin with our greg lee, who has been monitoring the cal door fire. greg julie. good evening, fire crews are being pushed to the limit, with several large fires burning in the northern part of our state at a community bqe. tonight calif. ira officials said the cow door fire continues to move north that prompted the eldorado county sheriff to order new mandatory evacuations for much of pollock pines, including areas north of highway 50. the cow door. fire continues to rage through el dorado county, exploding in size more than quadrupling tuesday, fueled by strong winds. we know this fire has done things that nobody could have predicted, but that's how firefighting has been in the state this year. already stretched thin by other massive fires. crews worked to respond to rugged terrain in the eldorado national forest and the communities nearby. the fire expanded so quickly cal fire officials didn't

deborah villalon live in clear like tonight, deborah. thank you. now to the called or fire, which has forced 20 30,000 people to leave their homes. the fire started in el dorado county and is still at 0% containment. so far more than 68,000 acres have burned, the fire has destroyed much of the community of grizzly flats. fire officials say the next few days will be crucial in firefighting efforts as crews race to protect thousands of homes that are under threat in that area. the hope is with the additional resources and personnel on scene. we can really start to build that box around this fire and start to containment. we're hoping over the next several days, you're going to start seeing that containment percentage increase as firefighters are doing a great job out there and we start to get this fire under control. firefighters are also dealing with steep terrain and limited road acts has in the fire zone. cause of the fire is still under investigation. pg and e has now restored power to all of the customers affected by the latest round of planned

they did know that deborah issued this curse from god. because the people of maraz, wherever they were, would not fight for god against the canines, would not join the fight. but one person who joined in the fight was yiel. some will remember her story. she was the one who fought for israel by slaying a cicero and she kind of lured him into the tent. when he went to sleep, she took a tent peg and drove it through his skull. that's a good biblical text. and in doing so, she exemplified courage. this played fairly well in the revolutionary period. preachers picked up on this and connected deborah and yiel as two women who would fight and who were mighty in battle. so this was the most -- based on what i could find. the curse of ma razz was the most cited biblical verse for like 100 years from the king philip war to the american revolution over 100 years. and here is another one by the way that got a good bit of play. from jeremiah. curse be he who does the work of the lord deceitfully and curse he -- and i want to specifically talk about pe

deborah turness, welcome to the media show. it's good to be here.or inviting me to be on your show. let's begin with a quickfire round. where do you get your evening news? what do you watch? i watch, of course, the output of my own platforms because that's, of course, a critical part of myjob and i always did anyway. so, i watch itv news, i watch news at 10 probably a bit more than evening news because i'm often still working for the evening news. i'll catch up on the itv hub for that. i watch channel 4 news, i watch channel 5 news, i also look at bbc news at ten as well, and the next day, i will check in on the american bulletins as well because it's just a habit i've had over the last decade and it's hard to reel yourself away from it. you've got an impressive cv — the first woman editor of a network tv news show in the uk when you took the reins at itv news. you then moved to america to head up nbc news, and later become president of nbc, one of america's big three networks. what made you want to get into journalism in the first place? you know,

>> deborah alpharone reporting from the white house, thank you. >>> as the u.s.crambles to control the mayhem at the kabul airport, the situation is growing increasingly dire for thousands of afghans trying to flee the taliban. cbs' roxana saberi is in doha tracking developments. >> reporter: evacuees are still flowing into al udeid, doha. we've learned because of overcrowding, qatar and the u.s. are expanding the facility, installing more showers and places to sleep. the u.s. is also trying to screen people faster and fly them to countries like the u.s. and germany, where one afghan woman arrived yesterday having just given birth on her flight. the pace of the evacuations from afghanistan picking up. the pentagon says u.s. military and coalition flights have airlifted out just over 25,000 people in the last several days. cbs news has learned from a state department source that the u.s. mission says the situation at the airport remains volatile, but the gates where u.s. troops are stationed were less violent today. and just outside, some witnesses say the taliban

but i want to underscore what robyn and deborah said. there's simply not enough health care, you know, experts out there, to fill the jobs we need in here. when i look at our projection of our needs, i actually amplify that across the country, and the time is now. that being said, shortages exist across allied health. we need as many people to become the technologists who are running the lab tests in the hospital, and that is a job many people do not know a lot about. i do not want to spend a lot of time on job titles, but i will name a few. as we dig about technology and how it helps support this, clinical bedside work -- we talked about that. we also have emerging roles with different skill sets that are necessary, that supports the bedside. so a lot of these areas across the board, p.a. i think the key is to move our population and managing error talent and showing people can be skilled differently and we offer opportunities to encourage people to move into areas across and build their careers. >> i think this is a great segue into ta

this is the us special representative for the secretary general in august on deborah lyons that's listed in for the opportunity of this special meeting on afghanistan and the opportunity to brief you today. it is particularly important because afghan, a stan is now at a dangerous turning point ahead lies either a genuine piece, negotiation or a tragically intertwined set of crises and increasingly brutal conflict combined with an acute humanitarian situation and multiplying human rights abuses. but today we have an opportunity, an opportunity to demonstrate the commitment of the un security council and the regional and international community that you represent. to prevent afghan, a stan from descending into a situation of catastrophe. so serious that it would have few if any parallels in this century. and let me assure you, such a catastrophe, what have consequences far beyond the borders of afghanistan? i do believe that the security council and the broader international community can help prevent the most dire scenarios. but it will require acting in unity and acting quickly. it will
