also i would say for the gulf states, there were quite a few visits to the gulf states in those groups. that was a different relationship than the one we have now. it was very close with the gulf states, whereas now we find ourselves at a distance with the gulf states over issues like the arab uprising, like iran, like syria. the clearest difference i would say is not on any one of these individual issues, as much as it is on the u.s. role in the u.s. in the middle east. in 2008, if you go back and read transcripts from the time, it is striking how down in the weeds we work on all these issues, whether it was the peace process, syria, or lebanon. the questions reporters were asking or in minute detail on each of these issues. if you look now at the type of questions that asked, we're just engaged at a very different level in the middle east, at a very different level of detail in issues like the peace process, lebanon, even syria and iran. i think the perception in the region is not only are we out of the weeds in a sense, but that we are stepping back more broadly from this region. wh

for america to influence the persian gulf was offshore rather than on site. this was not the 30th parallel in korea. this was not the gap in germany. where american church or station directly in harm's way as tripwires american resolve. on the contrary american policymakers for decades at this point have long hoped to influence the gulf and keep its oil flowing with as little direct involvement as possible so long as the soviets didn't interfere in the region themselves president carter declared in 1980, so long as the iranians didn't stop the gulf president reagan declared a few years later american planters were by and large contested. ultimately didn't matter as long as it will continue to flow in this is the bush administration 's first line as well. in unseating the fact a year before saddam's invasion ,-com,-com ma enunciated in the latter part of 1989 and national security directive 26 which laid out the full scope and rationale of american involvement in the region. this document which you can get in the archive if you would like does not use the word

florida gulf coast university.of them, maybe not, probably not most of us until last night in what some call the biggest cinderella story in ncaa history. florida gulf coast was the first number 15 seed to reach the sweet 16. odds of winning the ncaa championship are roughly one in about 80 # ,000, well, they definitely got everyone's attention now. how can the university capitalize on acinderella reputation? joining me now is the marketing guru and executive creative director, bruce. turkell? >> yes, thanks. sandra: guide us along here. nobody knew anything about the university until this past week, and they blossomed into this big name, recruitment is obviously going to get a heck of a lot easier forthem, but what do they do to capitalize on this moment right now? >> well, you said the exact right thing. they have to capilize on this moment right now. it's what marketers always look for. the portunity to be in front of the eyes of millions, and that's where they are. so right away, they could have people in the s

iraq would devolve into a jihadist stronghold and iran would expand its area of influence across the gulf region it was us who checks terrorist activity and contained iran's quest for regional domination i'm sure that all of our messages and information did reach us decision makers up to the very top. or did the iraqi leadership believe that america would stop short of starting the war because of its program attic policy and little interest in wrecking havoc and endangering its allies in the persian gulf. and. i think our leadership believed that the us administration could foresee the implications of toppling the iraq regime that the american administration would do something as stupid as letting the iraq regime fall and allowing al qaeda and iran to spread their influence across the region was totally inconceivable authorities thought that the wall wouldn't last long and that afterwards the us would put forward so. conditions and we would say yes but no one had expected americans not only to crush the regime but the whole country as well in such a brutal manner they even went as far as

two years ago, the people of bp made a commitment to the gulf. and every day since, we've worked hard to keep it. bp has paid over twenty-three billion dollars to help people and businesses who were affected, and to cover cleanup costs. today, the beaches and gulf are open for everyone to enjoy -- and many areas are reporting their best tourism seasons in years. we've shared what we've learned with governments and across the industry so we can all produce energy more safely. i want you to know, there's another commitment bp takes just as seriously: our commitment to america. bp supports nearly two-hundred-fifty thousand jobs in communities across the country. we hired three thousand people just last year. bp invests more in america than in any other country. in fact, over the last five years, no other energy company has invested more in the us than bp. we're working to fuel america for generations to come. today, our commitment to the gulf, and to america, has never been stronger. >>> the old model you made an appointment and hoped to get in in a

cooperation,bout most of what we are protecting in the gulf is the trade of energy between the gulf and asia. as we talk about burden sharing, what is the world for partnerships, while the country's already close allies and countries which are not allies, but which are relying on an energy from the gulf? should we be thinking about that differently in the budget context you have described? >> that is the argument you here. like 27like this -- things the united states can achieve a level of independence. why would we continue to be concerned about the energy that flows out of the gulf? my answer to that is i did not go to the gulf in 1991 and stayed there for about the next 20 years because of oil. that is not why i went, not what my children wet. we went there because we thought that a region of the war where we had not -- except for a few bilateral relationships, where we had not invested in me -- much of our band with in intellectual energy, commitment -- we went there in 1991 because of the-- because aggression of hussain, but we went there because the future of the region was typed

it was too much to overcome for florida gulf coast.rella runnen ends ine semifinals with a loss to florida. >> our plan was to twin and compete and win games. but it was unbelievable to see the excitement and passion not only of our local community and the students but also on a national level. >> the kansas/michigan matchup was built up to be a good one and it did not disappoint. the jayhawks were up eight with a 1:20 left but the wolverines came storming back, and the three pointer sent the game to the overtime. and michigan would go on to win 87-85 to reach the elite 8 for the first time since 1994. for more on this game head over to bleacherreport.com. >>> so, with kansas now out, that leaves louisville as the only number one seed left in the tournament and last night the cardinals continued to play like a dominant number one seed led by russ smith's 31 points. louisville jumped on oregon in the first half and they never looked back on their way to a 77-69 win. they advanced to the elite 8 for the second straight year. and their op
