gee my cousin john edwards volunteered for possession every week. he was certified. ex exor citizenim did nothing. colt 45, crazy horse they demand the sacrifices in blood so bottles would go to the couch friday night. walls kicked until straight jackets lay waiting on the lawn. mama would site visions of gang boys with metal vent as if it explained anything. it didn't between dusk from the and dawn saturday he was ready to blow the -- up. do you want some of this? oh , no, yes oh , no or yes , i will be damn, i will be damn, i will be damn. [applause] >> this is called someone else's child. and i guess it's a sort of an imagined conversation with a took place in a real moment in my father's hospital room in a matter of weeks before he died. my father is my foster father and there was always in my life this level of awkwardness because i was not biologically his own son. and he and i never got to have the conversation that i imagined here on page in this piece. so, there is a lot of truth in it. and here we go. someone else's child. >> i'm going to write a poem about

he has some children one of which is john michael reagan, dubee gets jack redden, john edwards reagan, my father's father. what did i find one i started looking at my father? getting past of a family history? we think of him as a sort of big strapping confident kind of guy, not afraid of anything. what could scare him? but when he was a little boy it turns out he was a little boy. he was undersized. his family moved around a lot. he was the new kid in school perennially, he was picked on by belize, chosen last 3 games on the playground clippers little spent a lot of his time alone. he spent a lot of time in places like the attic of a rental house where they lived, where the previous owner had left strange artifacts in the attic so he would spend his time in the dusty sun beams in the attic going for stuff birds and things and strange plants many of which seemed to come from the west. i think there he began to form this impression of the west as a wide open landscape. and instead of roaming that landscape as the score undersized kid he saw himself as a growing into a hero in that lands

children, one of which is john michael reagan now for the first time, reagan, who begets jack reagan, john edwards reagan that everybody kojak and that is my father's father. so, what did i find when i actually started looking up my father? getting pats on the family history and of? we think of him i think i do is the sort of big strapping confident kind of guy, you know, not afraid of anyone. what was kerry him. but when he was a little boy, it turns out -- he was a little boy. he was undersized as a youth. his family moved around a lot. he was the new kid in school, perennially. who is picked on by bullies, chosen last four games on the playground. and he spent a lot of his time alone. he spent a lot of his time in places like the attic of a rental house in galesburg, where they lived, where the previous owner had left strange artifacts as he saw it up in the attic. so you would spend his time in the dusty sunbeams in the attic, going through all these stuffed birds and things, strange plants, many of which had seemed to come from the west. they think they're you begin to form this impression of

he's writing a movie about john edwards and his love child, a tv series about a cable news show and aeen play about mark zuckerberg. we were struck by all the similarities between you and mark zuckerberg. >> yeah. >> reporter: both jewish kids who grow up.... >> in west chester. we grew up 20 minutes apart. >> reporter: he both went to california to make your fortune. you both write alone in front of a computer all day and night. >> yes. >> borger: and you know what? here's the last thing. he even lists the west wing as his favorite tv show. >> i know. and i thank him for that. >> osgood: coming up, 100 ways. no, no, i just paid my car insurance bill -- ouch.

edward county. so that's why schools were so overwhelmed. the school built for 180 people at 450 students enrolled in it. so barbara johnstelligently organized a boycott of the school until blacks would get equal facilities with light. and she went with her group of supporters. she went to the naacp, asking their support. they said look will support shia, who were not going to support you for separate but equal. only support you if we are in the slot do we think will make it to the united state supreme court and you become a litigant in the case that will become known as brown v. board of education. so a 15-year-old girl unleashed -- help to unleash a whole series of events that eventually led to the crisis of the schools being shut down in prince edward county. they were shut down from 1959 to 1964. many of the people who went to the march on washington volunteered to create condos a summer school is for all the kids who had never been to school before or haven't been there for years. there is some kid that didn't know how to hold the pencil committed no at the alphabet was. they hadn't been exposed to even the most bas

john, and everybody here at heritage, everybody for coming. lee edwards. i really struggled how to organize this talk because i turned in a manuscript of 250,000 words and about 1,000 pages. and i think the book god and ronald reagan i believe was somewhere around 100,000 words so that gives you an idea of just how enormous the task was and probably as well just how many dupes are out there. in fact, i'm not joking when i say this could be volume 1 in a multivolume set. [laughter] >> i really didn't know where to stop. and there were a number of people at different points that i thought i would have full chapters on and there would be so much information i'd fill up an entire box that i would just mark, for example, henry wallace and then at some point, i got to punt on this one. i mean, i could do a whole book just on this guy. so i'm going to focus a little bit with -- first i'll give you a little overview, why i did this and why i chose this subject and my goals and hopefully the importance of the issue. and then work upwards chronologically through thr

john. the race broke then to two segments. regan smith will get into the number 99 car of edwards, he then runs in to dale earnhardt june you're. they were finished along with montoya. the new surface made for racing at speeds over 200 miles an hour. the drivers figured outrunning in pairs was the best way to go. that worked out some of the time but not always. mark martin pushing kyle busch after they got out of whack both spun out. it came down to a four car race. newman in front being pursued by hamblen len. he goes below the yellow safety line. hamblen crossed first but was disqualified. that gives busch the win. mcmurry second and newman third. this is just an exbig. >>> tight racing of another kind. the prep race for the kentucky derby hopefuls. comet to the top one two to favorite after his 6th straight win but you have to figure he is on a good horse. bay is on the outside. watch the two of them make their move as they jostle. they take by a length and a quarter. bay's winneest all time jockey adds to his total. >>> and unusual day of semi- final action in san jose for the s, p tennis tournament. in one match unseeded

edwards. lee? [applause] >> well, thank you, john. and thank you all very much for coming. did william f.ckley jr. ever write a dull page? never. a dull paragraph? impossible. a dull sentence? well -- perhaps once or twice. but only to demonstrate that man is not perfect. but bill buckley was as close to a perfect writer as we shall ever see. he wrote millions of words in the second half, everything from liberal arrogance to conservative prudence and the dangers of nation building. a man of inany fit interest, he dissected politicians. he's a gem. a lot of champions of freedom like alexander, and margaret thatcher saluted the special gifts of artist and ewely guised mentors and were deeply in depth to roger kimball for editing most of them less than 1,000 words in length and who better as editors than they? linda was hired by bill buckley in 1969 to join the national review editorial department. she served ten years as the magazine's managing editor. roger is co-editor and publisher of the new criteria, surely the most literate journal in america and president and publisher of encounters

edwards: s. 188 is a bill to honor the life and public service of judge john mccarthy roll who was gunned down along with others at a community meeting in tucson, arizona. judge roll graduated from the university of arizona law school in 1972. and he spent the next 40 years of his life dedicated to public service. upon graduation from law school, judge roll served as a bay live in the pima count -- bailive in the pima count -- baliff in pima county. after his service as the prosecutor, jung roll moved to the u.s. attorney's office in arizona where he served both as a civil attorney and criminal attorney until 1987. primarily prosecuting drug cases for the federal government. judge roll then served as a state court judge until he was appointed to the federal bench by president george h.w. bush in 19 the 1. -- 1991. from this perch judge roll earned his reputation as a giant amongst the legal community in arizona. judge roll was respected by his lesion and the attorneys a period before him as someone who devoted his life to the rule of law and afforded all who appeared before him a fair opp

john glenn, that's in cleveland. langley research center in virginia, the driden flight research center. and that's at edwards air force base in california. and these nasa centers are unique in their ability to leverage the complementary and ever-increasing synergies between the space and the aviation systems through these incredibly experienced technical researchers, and they make remarkable advances in aerospace-related disciplines, in things like materials and structures, flight controls, aerospace systems, health management in aerospace systems, in high-speed aerothermal analysis tools. we take for granted when we get on commercial airlines some of the improvements that have been made. we will, where do you think a lot that have came from? it came from nasa, in the research there. and these advances not only accelerate space and aviation systemsystems but also other vey complex systems such as the smart grid, remote medicine and medical robotics, smart cars, a whole bunch of things. so nasa's fundamental aeronautics research capability happens to be also integrated with enabling our future space missions

edward chaplin knew the region. he knew the beat. i had every confidence in him. and any others, i know you have to have evidence from stephen patterson and john buck were also good officials. >> i mean, you said that you are satisfied other planning, but when you gave evidence just last year you said they were never keen on the u.n. role. this was just something we have to manage the whole time. when i asked you about when you realize united nations would not take a major role, he said 19th of march. i mean, surely it was clear before that at the united nations would not be playing a major role in the aftermath because stephen mattison told us on monday that it was in february when he went to the states he realized or he was told that the americans were not talking on the united nations -- >> the reason, baroness, refer to the 19th of march is there was a telegram reported not on the american strategy but on the attitude of kofi anand. because mike and i think a prime ministers would have to speak for himself was that although there was famously less enthusiasm for the u.n., within the u.s. system, each presented with the argument you could s
