and again, the next time for evans. >> and evans, he was not the play.wn the stretch for the two-point ball game. and nine out of 16 from the free throw line of 66%. and william and mary, calling for them to come out of that play for them and with no points. and to just drive for that kind of chance. >> not saying anything bad at the freshman for an amazing start of their career. >> after choosing the game. for as be had times as they do to get the gift. they will need to put themselves in the position to get to the free throw line. an area of the game that happened for them. >> and he will start with the foul for evans to pick up the third. now, they need to wash up the three pointers. >> both the tie up, going up to just that rebound. we did feel the attitude. which team is going to make more plays down the stretch. >> hofstra has lead and now this game is all tied up at 46. with 3:40 left. and they bail her out. the shot clock down to six. and getting that ball right there to recognize the tieup. it will be hofstra's ball. a violation. william and mar

brandon evans leading unc greensboro with eight. kyle randall with six points. sidney lowe talking to his team. trying to find the magic that they had early in the first half because they sure lost it in the last five or six minutes as unc greensboro made a great comeback. >> mike g.: and i love the energy that korey van dussen brought out there. i thought that was a big spark for them. defensively their zone was very active. nc state had a lot of problems with it. >> mike h.: we'll remind you for unc greensboro, two key players, mikko koivisto and pete brown are not available tonight. give uncg even more credit for what they've done hanging close here with nc state. spartans with just two wins on this season and nine losses. and, again, this is their fifth acc team that they have played. they'll play six in all. they play maryland on sunday. >> mike g.: what they should have done, they should have started pete brown and have him go across on tracy smith for a couple of possessions and then go back out see if that would have helped. >> mike h.: you're cruel. spa

evan, you're very familiar of course with yemen and the embassies there. what do you make of the decision to close the u.s. and the british embassy in yemen? >> let me run three ingredients in this recipe past you. first of all, we have repeated past efforts by al qaeda's network in yemen. al qaeda in the arabian peninsula, to strike at the united states embassy in sana. just a few months ago in september of 2008 al qaeda and yemen actually released a video documenting an attack that had taken place just a year before, about this suicide bombing attack on the u.s. embassy. number two, we just found out recently that the air strikes that we saw targeting al qaeda camps in yemen in the past month came as a result of the fact that u.s. intelligence learned that individuals were meeting in these locations and were planning imminent terrorist attacks against embassies -- western embassies in yemen. and the third ingredient is, al qaeda's in yemen's reaction to those air strikes. after those air strikes took place, al qaeda in the arabian peninsula issued a stat

how did you do that, evan? >> last sunday actually me and my family had a get-together. decided in the eve of the crisis that we would help and we sent around a basket and at the end of the night we came up with $1,000. >> larry: how did you hear about what usher was doing? >> it was posted all over facebook and twitter. i've been involved with new look through leadership tactics and their workshops and they taught me how to be power by service. >> larry: your new look has partnered with the u.n. foundation before, hasn't it, usher? >> yeah. with malaria prevention in africa. that's one thing we partnered on and now, you know, doing everything that we can, the money that is raised can actually be sent to the u.n. foundation, cerf, c-e-r-f, and the money will be properly placed. >> larry: how do they -- >> this is a -- >> larry: go ahead. >> no, this is a time when you see malaysia, when you see germany, when you see, you know, so many youth all over the world making a difference and, you know, this call to service is something that, you know, i, you know, i've been speak

. >> have you ever reviewed harold evans books? >> we extracted harold evans book and i don't get that i negotiated him down. >> so much of your professional life has been involved with the written word, and with books. why? >> i'm a passionate reader myself. our house is just wall-to-wall books. i mean, wall to wall. you can't believe how may books in our house. but my husband is a passionate reader and writer. i am a passionate reader and writer. and we're just a family of bookworms. >> have you gotten a candle or a sony player or any kind of electronic? >> i have a kindle. i still am kind of a candidate user, that's all because i'm actually a slow adopter. it was a long time before i took my blackberry to heart. now i live -- can't live without my blackberry. of course, i do like the feel, touch, smell, physicality of a book. and always have the. and in fact, now we're back with the davies will start our own little electronic book company which we will start online, and an accomplished as paperback. so i'm becoming sort of a min

so ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming sir harry evans.[applause] >> i just got to adjust. i can be elevated so i have to lower this. thank you so much for those actually words. it's always good to come back to britain. which is where we are. this is british territory, you understand. not to go through the formalities of proving land, which is what happens of course when you go through any security. it is true, julia lived very close to me. and he's lucky because we never met. [laughter] >> because who knows, tina, what might've happened if i met the gorgeous julia who became a scientist and, like me, ended up in the united states. tonight really it should be a celebration, not of me frankly, but of reporting. that's what my book is about. it's about what newspapers can achieve, not what an editor can achieve. but what the reporters on the ground can achieve. that's what i am particularly on a tonight to have been bradley here, who represents journalism at its best. and many other excellent reporters here. i'm also glad of course, we are h

evan how did that happen? >> inconceivable after all this money spent, the national terror center couldn't connect the dots. i mean, most americans are used to google and twitter. and myriad of i was to connect the dots. isn't there any program that connects the dots for the federal government? >> good question. colby. >> this is really hard. i've worked in em bass says and i've had walk ins to talk to give us information. in this case you have a very prominent nigerian, chairman of the first bank into the american embassy, speaking with the c.i.a. representative and the state department representative and telling them about his son becoming radicalized and living in yemen. at that point the state department had the ability to determine that this individual had a visa. they have a cons lar section right there in the embassy. if they didn't check the records right there they could certainly check back and get an answer. at that point his name should have been flagged so it would show up at the airport in amster

evan, first the timing of the decision to close the u.s. and british embassies today. >> it makes sense if you think about the reports that now the strikes, air strikes that we saw on al qaeda camps just in the last few weeks, took place specifically because of the fact that we had indications there were additional plans to attack u.s. -- the u.s. embassy, western embassies in sana, in yemen. it is part of a pattern. just 1 1/2 years ago in september of 2 240u8 al qae2008 arabian peninsula targeted the u.s. embassy in sana. it was memorialized in a video they released. they said in retaliation for these air trix strikes we will k western embassies. it makes sense it would be a british or u.s. embassy. i think it was a step of prudence but it was probably a wise one. >> i want to get your reaction to a statement by the ncse's michael lighter in -- "the failed attempt to destroy northwest flight 253 is the starkest of reminders of the insidious terror threats we face. while this attempt was a failure, we know with absolute certainly that sout

for some perspective, i'm joined now by nbc terrorism analyst evan kohlmann.st talking a few minutes ago, evan, how britain said yesterday they want to call international conference about the growing problem of islamic extremism that's based in yemen. what can we say about that? >> well, look, there has been a network that has been in yemen foreign a long period of time. if we go all the way back to 2002, there was a suicide boat bombing attack very similar to the attack on the "uss cole" on a french oil tanker. ever since then we have seen occasional activity. but it's really been in the last two years, it's really been since january 2008, where the lion's share of activity we have seen recently has popped up and the significant activity that would be a threat beyond the borders of yemen. again, one of the big parts of that is the return of a group of saudi, guantanamo bay veterans, people that were mid ranking al qaeda commanders, who were returned back to saudi arabia, who fled their rehabilitation program, and who rejoined al qaeda in yemen and who bav it

we will talk with evan perez on that later this morning.ext call comes from texas, james, democratic line. go ahead. caller: it is about time that the democrats got some doubts -- guts and go after the obstructionists. i have an analogy of what they have been confronted with. i am 73 years old and spent a lot of time in the civil war -- civil rights war. we had our heads a split open by the racists in the south occasionally, but we overcame. for that lady in arkansas, ma'am, when the civil rights act was signed, republicans developed what they called their southern strategy, an appeal to the white racist. these yellow dog democrats became republicans, because republicans were primarily more welcoming to racists. back to the health care, what we have is this. the premiums for health care have doubled since 2000, when the republicans did nothing. 45,000 people were dying because of lack of health care. republicans were in power and did nothing. when you talk about goals, ask yourself if a provision within the health care reform, where it cann

i'm will thomas. >> i'm laura evans inor maureen. the temperatures are dangerously low. we have team coverage on the bitter blast. gwen tolbart is live in the weather center to get us started. >> reporter: bitter, bitter cold conditions a cross the area. we've had gusty wind all day. no longer under a wivend advisory. take a look at this map. there is a windchill advisory for the areas to the west. it's going to feel like minus 5 to minus 10 degrees below zero and even in the higher elevatio up to minus 15. single digit temperatures and in the teens. allegheny, mineral, hardy, grant and pendleton. winds gustg hour. also across the west a winter weather advisory. they've already received more than 4 inch of snowfall and in this area we are talking an additional 1 to 3 inches of snowfall tonight through into monday. this ends by 6:00 monday evening. so a lot going on. we still have the wind. fairly strong across the area. 26 miles per hour gusts at national. 30 atulles and 31 at baltimore. 26 at hagerstown. here's the windch

the one of my close friends went on to college with him now was at time magazine which was evan thomasof this town. and under the theory that i've been with the east coast preppy and i was from louisiana, he would understand it. i started asking him about the establishment. why do we read a book about the east coast establishment? at first we were doing a morpheus book about the east coast establishment, but what i said about the lessons of always tell it to people, great characters. we decided to just take six people who were at the core of what was supposedly the american establishment. and evan and i were at a house with zach harbour and he was in early morning and i'm a late night person towards it until 5:00 a.m. sketching these various characters and then handed over to him when he got up at 5:00 a.m. and then we do to the beach in the afternoon. it was about six friends and how the intersected in life and became part of the establishment. we brought it down the street to a woman who had been clay fulcher's secretary at the magazine and was just becoming an agent and is now a sup

. >> for some perspective i'm joined by nbc terrorism analyst evan coleman. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> so one of the things we hear from the president, he's going to make it a priority to strengthen relationships with friendly countries and cites yemen in particular. but given the internal situation in that country, is it easier said than done? >> yeah, it's incredibly easier said than done. the yemeni government in the last couple days has been coming out and suggesting that if we just give them more money, if we just give them more support, they can take care of this problem. and i think that's a little bit overly optimistic. we've heard the same line from the pakistani government and if you look at pakistan right now there's a lot of work left to be done there. there are some very, very serious underlying problems in yemen. aside from the fact that you have al qaeda there. there's another insurgency along the saudi border with a group of shiite extremists. who also don't like the united states, who also don't like the west. and who have been

you're on the line with evan perez. . >> caller: good morning, mr. perez. >> guest: good morning. >> caller: i mean, i'm not trying to be funny, but are you really just educated to understand that cuba is on the list because of all the other noncomcompliance or not complying with what the united states wants because the united states gets what they want. i'm a terrorist and all the united states citizens are terrorists. are you there? >> guest: i'm here. >> caller: go ahead. >> host: no, he's gone. >> guest: what i was pointing to is the -- is the political nature of this. i mean, cuba is a big issue especially in florida where i lived for a long time. and so, you know, it's something that, you know, is always going to add a few complications to something like this. i think the government -- the administration certainly looked at this and decided to go the safe route and add cuba in there. >> host: what's the difference between a terrorist watch list and a no-fly list? and why wouldn't they just put everybody on the terrorist list on the terrorist wa

guests on fox news sunday, include indiana leader and evan vie.time stu art benjamin. >> today on "newsmakers," senator byron dorgan. >> senator, a moment ago you mentioned health care, do you think that the president made a mistake mentioning this? >> i do, not that health care is not important, but the timing is not good. to put together a health care proposal that can get through the congress. i personally would have said let's work exclusively on restarting the economic work engine again and put people back to work. i am sure that the president would say that he is working on that too. but i would have said that first. but the president won the election, and his position, you can't fix that without fixing the health care. and we found a variety of menu health care changes. >> you can see the entire interview on "newsmakers" on c-span. "washington journal" continues. host: our guest rolf mowatt larssen is c.i.a. agent. thank you for being with us. guest: thank you. host: you have a piece on al-qaeda weapons of mass destruction and you spoke tha

and of course my dear friend, evan thomas, in his magnificent ratings beginning with john paul jones and the wise men and all about the pacific as an inspiration and we're so glad you share the meeting. our story will open with a steadfast between the united states and the japanese navy over aquatica now in the solomon islands. we find ourselves in the southwest pacific in 1942 through 1944. in many of these battles, the japanese gave as good as they got. the new tactics had to be developed to defeat the powerful japanese navy. mander arleigh burke suddenly became to national fame during his service of battles with his destroyer squadron named them the little beavers. he loved the little beavers. he always loved those favors untracked sailors and that's why the lone star sailor down on involving avenue symbolizes that let that he has for sailors. burke was an aggressive combat leader. his standing orders were to attack an enemy contact without orders from the task force commander. in the battle empress augusta bay and cape st. george, he emulated among all people the strategy to defe

of course they came to the building for hearing cases the chief justice at that time was charles evans hughes, and the office they provided for him and the building was more as a ceremonial office to greet distinguished visitors and so forth, and he continued working out of his home. most justices at the time did not even claim the of the space -- office space. the first justice who use that building extensively as his office was hubert block, roosevelt's first appointee, appointed after the building was completed. supreme court justices are not shy, and some felt that the new building was to grant, too grandiose. later, chief justice stone, he was an associate justice when the building was built, and alleged to say that he thought the justices were like nine black beetles, and they should write in each morning on elephants. he also made the comment that the building was for nine old guys on the supreme court. the other thing about the building, aside from the fact that it had an awful lot of marble in a -- if it -- in it, which the justices were not accustomed to, the building was ver

where is andrew evans this morning? we'll it would you. >>> this is our live picture that we just showed you a moment ago. this is montrose road where it come in contact with # 70. this is a fuel fire. apparently a tanker tck there. but that truck may have spilled fuel along the road. that is now up in flames. -- this is montreal rose road where it comes in contact with 270 -- this is montrose road here it comes in contact with 270. >> let's get to julie wright with the traffic. >> yes, the call came in at about 4:40 this morning because of the huge truck fire. we believe the driver is the one who made the 911 call. montrose road shut down in each direction east and westbound as it crosses over 270. i notice on my trip in, there was a lot of response headed in this direction and again, the fire, as you can clearly see, flames continue to shoot up in the air. they very well may have to close down 270. that hasn't happened yet but they may. we will keep you posted. but in the meantime, if you normally use montrose road to

it is a remarkable story so ladies and gentlemen, please help me in welcoming sir harold evans. [applause] >> i can't be elevated so i have to do this. thank you so much for the excellent words. it is always good to come back to britain, which is where we are. of course it is a british territory you understand and not to go to the full malices approving who i am which is what happens of course when you go through any security. julia lived very close to me and he is likely because we never met. [laughter] because he knows tino what might happen if i had met the gorgeous julia coop became a scientist and like me ended up in the united states. tonight really should be a celebration, not only me but of reporting. that is what my book is about. it is about what newspapers can achieve, not what an editor can achieve but what the reporters on the ground can achieve. that is why i am particularly honored tonight to have been bradley here who represents journalism at its best and many other excellent reporter's here. i am also glad of course that we are here which is a synthesis i think

but you know, just yesterday senator evan bayh and i had a package of proposals to reduce the deficit, to eliminate earmarks and pork barrel spending and to get our financial ship right. i worked with senator levin on defense acquisition reform. i continue to work with democrats on the committees and on a number of policies ranging from indian affairs to national defense. so i'm very proud of my record, but i again say that when you are in a majority and you do not respect the views and input of the minority, you get a predictable reaction, larry. >> larry: thanks, as always, senator. see you down the road. >> thank you, my friend. >> larry: senator john mccain. our political experts. we are building a website by ourselves. announcer: there's an easier way. create your own business site with intuit websites. just choose a style, then customize, publish and get found. sweet. get a 30-day free trial at intuit.com. >> larry: joining us from chicago, arianna huffington, editor in chief of the huffington post. kevin madden, senior advisor to mitt romney's campaign. here in los angeles the

they had photographs from walker evans but one does not think of them as having been as important in the field of photography as they were. he got this newspaper that paul has explained very different in format but also in its politics and it's important to realize two-thirds of the american press was against roosevelt in 19,306th three quarters were against him in 1940. the press was overwhelmingly republican at the time. and as i will mention later was more than against intervention at a time by the way when 84 percent of the american population was in favor of hoping the allies would win in favor of helping them but one of the differences that resonates today is out adamantly to the right the republicans were. when finally passed in 1941 most americans had bid for it, 1305 out of 159 g.o.p. representatives 17 of the 27 they had not quite worked out fit total party discipline they are now showing but certainly going in that direction. and they were just saying no os what is interesting in the third term we have a cartoon called the fair ground of roosevelt's 518 this bullet and of

fortune got photographs made by walker evans and people like that. one doesn't think of them as being as important to photography as they were. this newspaper was very different in format but also different in its politics. it is important to realize that two thirds of the american press was against roosevelt in 1936. free quarters were against him in 1940. the press was overwhelminglythr in 1940. the press was overwhelmingly republican at the time. this at a time when 84% of the american population was in favor of helping the allies. one of the differences of the period that resonates today is how adamantly to the right the republicans in congress were. in 1941, most americans having been for it was opposed by 145 of the 159 gop representatives in congress. 17 of the 27. they had not worked out the total discipline they are now showing that they were certainly in that direction. they were just saying no. what is interesting is in the third term we had this cartoon called the third round of roosevelt fighting this apelike opponent and of course it is

i remember evan bayh speaking about you're saying that these guys, they might need armageddon or such talking about hundreds of thousands of people dying unnecessarily with an election going the wrong way for democrats in order for them to become more moderate. and these are individual human beings at some point have to be held account on a moral calculus. and whether or not they are, and whether or not at the end of the day, when they sit down in the dark of the room at night and think about what's happening tomorrow, they think my god i can't live with myself. if i let these people down. i generally believe going to play a part in this. but the last quick thing, you have to be very clear on what they're afraid of. it is not the bill. they know they're tied to the bill. it is the process. if you ask them why they are not ready to do reconciliation, it is because they are afraid of being seen to craft another back room deal. what has made americans hate the bill, the reason all the compone parts are popular -- component parts are the process. there is nothing people hate more than con

evan thomas is a fabulous author has captured the spirit of these times in the most gripping of ways.e asked him to take the lead. >> this wonderful speech shuts the question of when do leaders, military leaders and the civilian control system disagree, the scent, challenge, higher authority? i want to ask that of each of the group. could arleigh burke survive today? [laughter] >> i guess in the way that david captures him so well, he would figure out a way to do it. given those that he routinely challenged and the description of the word interesting and how he would trot individuals and even as they got mad and even at that level, there would clearly want to hear from him again. i suspect that he could. he would have figured out a way to adjust to the circumstances that exist today. >> can you address the larger question of when a military officer and how and under what circumstances are the rules of the road on challenging higher authority? >> not unlike what admiral burke did in the sense that in discussions that would be routine with your boss and then those when you disagree and

. >> reporter: evans has been in the united states illegally for at least three years.been convicted of 12 charges including battery on a law enforcement officer and cocaine possession, the 32-year-old was never deported because he lied about his status. he was only identified, thanks to a new homeland security program. so this machine here is going to connect you immediately with the fbi and the department of homeland security right away? >> yes. it is. >> reporter: in gwinnett county, georgia, captain john spear oversees the new program called secure communities which checks a suspect's finger prints against federal databases. >> what we're introducing to the process is the digital exchange of the fingerprints so that we can run the databases not only at the fbi but at the department of homeland security for immigration purposes in a matter of minutes and get them back to the law enforcement officials. >> reporter: but immigrant rights activists say the program targets migrants unfairly. >> it's open season for latinos in georgia. >> reporter: jerry gonzales says it t

i remember evan last week speaking that -- he said, these guys, they play need armageddon and such a clamentity to get this in their heads. he wasn't talking about people dying unneccessarily but for them to be more mod ral. these are individual human beings that have to be held account on a moral calculus and whether or not they are and whether or not at the end of the day, and they sit down and think about tomorrow, they think, my god, i can't live with myself. if i let these people down. is -- i genuinely believe is going to play a part in this. the last quick thing. we have to be clear on what they're afraid of. it is not the bill. three know they're tied to the bill. it is the process. if if you ask them why they're not willing to do reconciliation, it is because they're afraid of being seen as a back door deal. and the reason is the process. there's nothing human beings hate more than congress, they're probably right in that judgment. but this is something presidents have had a hot of trouble figuring out so too has congress. the only way you could pass legislation is to go thr

i believe that maurice evans came in for him. certainly right now really lends itself. >> steve: it helps. wizards have had about 16 different starting lineups. antawn jamison has been one f the constants for washington. he has 13 rebounds in the first half. wizards trail the hawks by 12. winning six straight against washington including a sweep last season in four games and they lead by 12 here as we get set to start the third quarter from atlanta. we will get the first half stats after washington scored just 13 points in the first quarter scoring 20 in the second. >> phil: not really a shooter clinic right here. both teams under 40% shooting. not shooting that well from three-point range. rebounds have been even. washington doing a much better job in the second. look at that. 21-2. much more production off their bench and mario west against jamal crawford who leads all scorers off the bench having a good night. >> steve: randy foye getting another start tonight. had nine points. four assists. in that first half play for washing
