chris johnson. here comes london, finds chris johnson, back the other way. flyers looking to get set now in the half court. london up top with it. they double team him, swinging around. somebody is open in the corner. it's marcus johnson. now, they pick him up. dayton up 2-0. >> it starts at the high post and looks for a little dunk down for the low post to chris wright. >> stolen back by chris johnson. chris wright picks up the loose one, gets the bucket. >> derek: they are being very aggressive tonight, taking the ball to the bass kempt as you said, only two points in the last game. he already matched that in less than two minutes in tonight's ballgame. give the credit to chris johnson. he had the hand up after the bad pass and was able to knock it down. old dominion looking for their first point. that's leeway outside. darius james with it on the left point. >> you can rest assured that the monarchs will be looking to lee on this play down court here. he is really the center peels of their offense. >> carter, up top, kick it outside. james, rattles home t

that being chris johnson, paul williams and marcus johnson. marcus johnson, again, a struggle here on the season but tonight he is shooting the paul exceptionally well. >> reporter: mark just with 12, chris wright with 16 to lead the flyers. gerald lee with 15, the only player in double figures. give it up, chris, look out. he is in trouble. to london warren. trying to dumb team, creating a turnover which they have done real well tonight. timeout brian gregory. 22 secondes on the shot clock. 59 seconds left in the game. >> derek: mike, this is where, again, we talked about dayton excels and that's out of a timeout, dead ball situations. look for brian gregory to draw something up going toward the basket. the monarchs, what they are doing at this juncture in the game, they are going any and all screens. they're trying to prevent any two players coming to the because if they to, that's going to result in a trap. they have final exams coming up this week. they don't play again until saturday night against presbyterian. want to talk daytop basketb

glory johnson going hard.e neka, relentless after that rebounding. >> mary: collective top five, notre dame, number four, saw them a couple weeks back when they beat michigan state in east lansing, not carolina. great notre dame team. doing a fabulous team. stanford and notre dame decided to stay home. >> jim: they call her neka from cypress, texas. she says she can even do a back flip. she has three younger sisters. shanae, number one recruit in the couldn't think, has just committed to stanford. >> lisa: yeah, i said, is she going to be bossing her around? she said no, if she gets out of line, if she gets a little feisty. but otherwise she's looking forward to that. and then i asked her also, who better? she said her sister is a better ball handler and outside shooter. their games are different. but if you look at them differently. >> mary: she's a natural. >> lisa: stanford's going to be huge next year when you look ahead when her sister coming in. 6'3". 6'4". they're going to have an amazing lineup. but, a

glory johnson inside.ders and is fouled. >> lisa: let me ask you, mary, do you get the sense that tennessee is not sure where their next points are going to come from? usually they have such prolific scorers. you know, when you think back to the history. obviously candace parker. right now because they're such a young team, you know, they have seven sophomores, it looks like they're really searching to see where their next basket is coming from. >> mary: they do not have any rhythm. their leading scorer is stricklen, then bjorklund. so your guards are your one and your two. so i was maybe expecting pat to come back with cain even when appel is on the floor, maybe try to take advantage and not have to bang away with big jayne appel. >> jim: remember what pat said earlier in the week, their problem is they've been inconsistent with their effort, turning it on and off, it's hurting them right now. under two minutes now to play. stanford has slowly taken control of this game. not a good entry pass. peders pede

and -- and the basket by ravern johnson ties his career high with 26 points. michael roll missing and lee gets it back and takes the three and knocks it down. they call it a two. foot was on the line so 106 his 13 points have come in the second half for malcolm lee. >> marcus: mississippi state very deliberate in their offense and letting the shot clock get back below ten before they initiate offensively jarvis. >> steve: there's dee bost. seven on the shot clock and mississippi state gets it back. they will run it and a follow from behind on michael roll. jarvis varnado with a block party here in anaheim, california. we'll take a look at some of his swats and when we come back we'll also take a look at georgetown's win over washington in game one of the wooden classic. jarvis. >> steve: here at the john r. wooden classic. mississippi state with a 69-45 lead over ucla. earlier isaiah thomas scored early and quincy poindexter also was ripping from outside, and washington was only trailing by one at halftime. but then georgetown had so many's baskets. they looke

he shot 44% last year and ravern johnson, he's got a good shot. >> marcus: he does and one thing coach stansbury told us, he does one thing and does anybody as well as everybody in the southeastern conference is knocking down that jump shot and he becomes a tough matchup because of his size jarvis. >> steve: the first thing benland talked about yesterday at practice. they go inside to nelson, and mississippi state has had 28 three-pointers the last two games. they are averaging ten made per game. >> marcus: that is so unorthodox that varnado was asking for a travel violation. how do you do that without traveling? reeves nelson a nice bit of ball fake being and that will be a key for ucla jarvis. >> steve: i don't know if they want augustus taking that shot. anderson has it swatted away and claimed by mississippi state. >> marcus: come on in here and add to my s.e.c. record-leading total jarvis. >> steve: barry stewart missing and rebounding michael roll. >> marcus: with varnado is saying inviting anderson. you've got to get that shot blocked every time. you've got to throw your body in

squat score by the required johnson. >> ron: 6'10", 195 pounds.lost 40 pounds to get to 195. >> mike: probably has work to do on the body, proven he can be a double figure scorer for frank haith. >> ron: wave seen the run by miami. al skinner's team has gone six minutes without a basket, what is he telling his troops? >> mike: i think you have to be a little patient and where corey raji steps up and makes a play for his team. >> ron: we talk about reggie johnson being a big guy, miami missing another big guy they miss dearly, jenn, you have more on that. >> jenn: he's tuning up for the hurricane football field, jimmy graham. lined up for the football team, last year was a force inside for the hurricanes all time at miami in blocks. he started a couple games for the hurricane, played in every game this year on the football field. his first three passes all went for touchdowns, interesting transition, one of four former basketball players who switched to football. he switched to graduate school. his eligibility was up in basketball so he could go to

johnson, his first two. >> mike: had a terrific game, 6 of 9 shooting. in, shooting a very high percentage, 70% lxx% the year. we saw him last year, he was a rather large man. lost about 40 pounds this last season. paris makes the shot. southern has it stripped. >> mike: how many times do you see that as a freshman going into the sophomore year and first year going into the red-shirt year, remaking his body getting into the weight room and figuring out what it takes to compete on this level. he made a lot of effort last year doing that as cortney dunn checks in. among the big redwood, blocked and position belongs to miami. another offensive rebound. >> mike: what they're doing, anticipating where the shot is coming from. guys are keeping the ball alive. that time, cortney dunn kept it alive. not necessarily the guy making the rebound, the guy between. we will see grant and scott together in the backcourt today, i'm sure. back to jackson for the rebound. >> mike: this is the most zone i've seen either one of these. i know. >> mike: for an extended period

johnson misses and a good rebound for kansas and a putback. this is a career high, 12 points. >> mike: back at pauley pavilion number one kansas leading ucla, 52-43. michael eaves back with you. steve and marques were talking earlier. reeves nelson is a ben howland kind of player. we've seen it so far in this game. of his eight rebounds six have been offensive. being scrappy down low. battling cole aldrich, the morris twins. really being the defensive, pretty kind of player ben howland was when he was in high school and college. but on this play, coming up, being scrappy. being tough. he takes one to the eye. the ball goes in. they've been working on him in the time-out ever since. he does have a slight scratch just below his right eye but the real problem is and marques says this, his eye is really swelling up. they put some ice on it. trying to get the swelling to go down. the trainers were having him follow a finger to make sure he could see through that swelling. they're still not certain if he's going to be able to play. he wants to play.

i started in '76 on lyndon johnson. i want to add it up, 33 years. >> what first sparked your interest in lbj? >> good question. i never look at my books as biography. i never want to do a book just about a great man. i'm interested in political power and how it works. and using a man's life to show it. with robert moses, i tried to show how urban power works in cities. with lyndon johnson, he understood national power better than almost anyone. if i can take his life, i can show how national power works. >> i say you want for the third in your series, you won the national book award. what's the effect of that? >> the effect on it -- the effect on me was terrific. i was happy to win it. >> did. change book sales? anything? >> i'm not -- not sure i know or remember the answer to that question. to be honest with you. he did very well. you know? that book did well. i can't remember this. i had an impact on it. >> author robert. >> author ann. we're a into the obama administration. rate it? >> i'd say, worst than carter on

and big reggie johnson. collins now with four points in the ballgame.is biko paris in the first half 1 for 3, shooting three poin points, 1 for 6. in miami, you have to have a stop. jackson being guarded by mcgowan. shot clock at 10. wide open, reggie jackson. cyrus mcgowan had no chance of blocking that. >> mike: almost the exact same play raji scored on earlier, same type of pass. >> ron: wide open in that baseline. k collins is trying to do some work on the block. pull-up jumper, tough shot. good to see him, if you're a miami fan, get on track, he has four in the game. the lead is still 10. >> mike: they really kept the ball out of his hand, only the third field goal attempt. >> ron: rebound control. >> mike: it's tough to shoot yourself into a mode especially from the three. >> ron: trying to establish something on the inside, taken away by southern, collins loses the handle. >> mike: how about the confidence in southern al skinner has. letting him play one-on-one, no double help coming. >> ron: play this time, corey raji, 13 points for raji in that

how many people know who simon johnson is? simon johnson is the former chief economist for the imf. in all the years i have interviewed economists, and that is 32 now -- these things are quickest, with most insightful i have ever interviewed, so to answer the question, how would i feel about simon having his own show -- i would be jealous. i would figure i would be on the show, so i would not worry that much, but what you were saying, i would be concerned that simon, who has a point of view, a point i often agree with, but if simon has a show, financial daytime tv, let's say, which is the kind he can absolutely do, it would take viewers away from me if he was doing some of his explanations, and i am forced to work in an organization where it is real on the one hand -- on the other hand, check out your mother's claims. i would feel the world might well be a better place for having simon in it as well, to the extent i thought even-handed journalism -- viewers were being taken away from that to him. i might have misgivings. >> the news has become, the thais, and what you're buying -- n

johnson is 6'5" and his skill level is off the charts. >> calvin johnson is a match up nightmare. you know, he's as good as anybody in the league. we played him two years ago in philadelphia. he's tall, he's fast and got great hands and catches passes. he's a tremendous player. >> he's a great, great receiver, you know. he's got size. he's got speed. everything that really impresses me probably the most about hill is he goes after every ball as if it's the last one. you know, you see some skilled receivers that will make catches and the next one they will drop. this guy is fighting for every one like it's the last rebound. >> there is some key players on the injury list. offensive weapons mark clayton and lj smith join reid as doubtful and johnson and terrell are 50/50. >>> the eagles have confirmed that brian westbrook will miss at least one more game because of a second concussion this season. that means brian is out for sunday's game against the giants. wide receiver jackson pack tilled all week and is listed as probable for the game. jackson missed last week's game also becaus

lyndon johnson as a poor example.n the intellectual point about him. he suddenly got that whether the speech before the gridiron club line him up and everybody thought he was pretty good. he was a political accident when you think about what happened in chicago was that the guy self destruct did, the republican leader in that race and a broaay brought in obama. guest: i was there at that speech and it was the first time i met him. i came back and i told my wife that i had never seen a man work through the way he did. she said," better than bill clinton?" host: if cameras were able to be inside the gridiron club, we could show that. we will not give up. guescaller: i would like to focs on the economy. in order for the president to get the economy moving, we had to stabilize the if you have a job, where will you cash your check? we had to stabilize the banks. the next thing he is trying to do his health care which is 1/6 of the economy. that is a lot of money to give these people some kind of public option where they co

johnson?> i believe there is an impact. it's felt most greatly in the most dangerous or difficult countries. the lack of language skills really depends on which country. in some places it's important and others, less so. i think as part of the planning effort there needs to be a review of criteria for designating language in general and certainly for ds officers and the levels at which that should be taking into consideration we need higher levels of proficiency in dangerous, sensitive countries and lower levels in countries where that is not the case and where use and knowledge, good command of the english language is much greater. i think to do that, d.s. is now recruiting many people who don't have any experience with learning languages and don't necessarily have any aptitude for learning language. we may have to recognize that it may take longer and we may need to review the approach we have to the language training and reinforcing it once we have given it. so i think that whole approach o

johnson: thank you, sir. you're from texas, too. thank you. the purpose of this bill is simple. social security and supplemental social security income should not be payed to prisoners, fugitive felons or probation or parole violators. i ask all my colleagues to support this bill. this stopgap measure addresses a glitch in the current law discovered when social security began to implement a nationwide class action settlement agreement reached in september in the case of martinez vs. ashdrew. that limited the types of arrest warrants used to limit benefits to certain recipients. in the first phase of settlement implementation, notices will be issued beginning this week to 28,000 individuals. of these, social security recently identified 150 as prisoners. current law already prohibits prisoners, fugitive fell felons -- felons, and probation and parole violators from receiving benefits. the same law should apply to retroactive benefits as well, but right now, it doesn't. that's why we need to pass this bill. if

and loin done baines johnson, the master of the senate, then president, mastered the critics who once again said it's too much government, it's not needed, we shouldn't do it. their counsel was rejected. medicare was created. it wasn't the medicare we know today. it didn't reach the disabled. it didn't provide some of the basic services that many seniors now desperately need, and it didn't cover prescription drugs, but it was a start. it was a critical decision made to move forward. the same republican party that objected to the creation of medicare has been critical of the program ever since. they have argued that it is wasteful, that it's doomed, that it should be allowed to wither on the vine -- that was actually a quote from a leading republican not that long ago -- and they suggested there was a better way. let's privatize medicare. they love the notion of privatizing -- get government out of the picture. and they came up with this theory with the health insurance industry of something called medicare advantage. this was where those flinty-eyed entrepreneurs would teach governmen

when you hear the lyndon johnson tapes on the phones such as those aired on bill moyer's show a coupleks ago you hear leaders on the hill saying privately, even pleading with the president not simply to get carried away with the militarism. as one leader from the appropriations committee pleads with the president now -- yet there's something in this repeated compulsion, president bent on war who insists, no, we are the smart guys, the best and brightest. we will do a ride. host: norm solomon, the author of "or made easy." and this ismark, a reporter. caller: good morning. i want to talk about the fact that when president obama was running, running for office, he said that he felt the war in afghanistan was the right war to fight. he made it very clear. he really got in and listen to what everyone had to say. he made the decision he thought best for the country around how we face afghanistan. i think if we look carefully at what he has done, he is not just sending troops over there to fight, but to do the social things neglected to the bush administration. guest: thanks for your comment

so we went down to the archives of the lyndon johnson, johnson library and there's this wonderful memo from mac bundy were we start the books they there is no such thing as the establishment. and then there's this memo that andy had written called docking from the establishment. as a memo to johnson about how you had to get the establishment on your side from the vietnam war. he said the key to these people as john mccloy, one of the characters in our book. and he says we should convene them together and we can dump them the wise men and they will do whatever we want. so that's the joy of the documents in the interviewing, which is the way a journalist tries to take on history. it was helpful when i did henry kissinger because every time i looked up the memos in the document, they seemed rather misleading until winston loy told me guess if you work for henry mcgill writes three versions of every memo. one is for the files and is totally untrue. one is for nixon and has its particular slant. and what is for henry's personal files and that's when we tell the real story. so i'm trying to

johnson. >> yes, what i would like to ask, mr. seibel, and -- by the way, i'm happy to know that you're -- your firm supports getting a handle on this kind of copyright infringement. but i got to ask you -- do you think it is -- it is -- it is -- morally right for your firm to continue to engage in -- in the use of copyrighted materials without the -- the owners consent? from a moral standpoint. i like you to answer that. is it right? is it fair? >> i think that when we -- when we look at this issue, our understanding and kind of as we look at our entire business, it is not the point, nor is it the goal of the tv to distribute copyrighted content. when you look at, we're -- why i.t.v. began, we started with the idea of broadcasting one person's life online. that was our cofounder justin kaun and the viewers of that original broadcast were is excited by the potential of live video online that they too wanted to create their own hive content. they didn't want to broadcast their entire lives but they wanted to share live interesting

in 2007, despite plans that cost 3% to 4% of their workforce johnson & johnson found the cash to pay ceo bill weldon dirty $1.4 million while ron willens took home $38 million. and on and on it goes. madam president let me briefly describe the main features of a medicare for all single-payer systems. and this is, let me briefly describe what's in the bill. in terms of access, people getting into health care, this legislation would provide that all necessary medical care without car sharing or other various good treatment. every american, not 94% 100% of american citizens would be entitled to care. in terms of choice, the issue is not choice of insurance companies that are republicans are talking about our republican friends talk about the question of choice and choice of doctors, choice of hospitals, choice of therapeutic treatments. and other single-payer legislation this would provide full choice of position and the license providers and hospitals. importantly, and i know there is some confusion here. a single-payer program is a national health insurance program which utilizes nonp

larry johnson has worked for the state department and caa. there are different cultures in those agencies, and we don't have a unified system with dhs in which we have information, even let's say we had 500,000 pieces of information. shifting it back and forth between agencies and getting it to tsa or local or state law enforcement is a monumental efforts. working with local law enforcement, we don't get real time data quickly enough from so-called feds. i think that reliefs the issue. i don't know if what the president said will rectify that situation. >> larry: larry, do you agree with tom ridge when he said need to know became need to share and we seem to go back to need to know? >> not really. the problems that exist today existed under tom ridge and existed under michael chertoff. let me give you a he quick example. i was down at mcdill air force base. we had to come up with who was the name at fema that was the point of handling emergency response. we go onto the security -- the secret classified level computer and pull up the departmen

bill clinton have a relationship with any newsperson like joe alsop did with the presidents lyndon johnson and jack kennedy? >> i do not know that he does. i do not believe that he does. >> what you think about all the letters of him writing to president kennedy saying that he was the greatest. >> it should not the one and i think that most people -- most journalists and most other people who read this book will say, there is a lot of transgressions year. this guy's purporting to be attached analytical news man and his release snuggling up to a lot of resources. but he was a columnist. he was not an objective reporter. that would be part of his defense, no doubt. but from almost the very beginning, joe got very close to his sources. and probably most people would say to close. >> here we are many years later. is there any way to relate dollar ran back to the days of james polk? >> that is fascinating. those were the days of the partisan press. james polk or any president had to have a newspaper that was his spokesperson, his mouthpiece. polk had a real problem with the president because th

reverent al sharpton, the activist and former presidential candidate and jeff johnson, b.e.t. correspondent. is obama failing the african-americans? >> i think failing is a strong word. >> larry: disappointing. >> certainly. i think plenty of reason to be disappointed. i think he has falling short of big clinton and jimmy carter. >> larry: what do you think, al? >> i think the overwhelming majority of the people i talked to said that president obama is doing what he protected. he was given a terrible economy a word at war and he has dealt in the way that most african-americans are proud of. he was elected president of the united states and he is doing exactly what he said. this morning, the chairman of congressional black caucus, and cbc two or three people who always criticized president obama that are saying things now they said then. >> larry: jeff what do you think? break the tie here? >> let me first say that it's a misnomer to act that all the black community wants the same thing all the time. what segment are we talking about? and i think disappointment is n my mind is

a pleasure to hook with marcus johnson. stanford looking for a little respect. >> they've had ownership papers on the pac-10, but stanford is playing against a good, quality basketball team. stanford is picked to finish 10th in the conference. they play well. >> no question about it. it seems like four years ago we saw this big, tall, 6'5" gawky and skrawnk yid, landry. >> i think barry he's one of the top five point forwards in the entire country because he can step out and knock down a jump with range. he does a great job pushing it up the floor. he's a stat stealer, rebounds, steals, blocks. had a great game against kentucky. he makes things happen, landry fields. >> a complete player, and when you talk about a complete player, that was exactly the way oklahoma state coach talked about james anderson. >> he's a tremendously gifted player, great athleticism. he can also step out and knock down a three-point shot with consistency. the thing i he like about him, when the opposition's best offensive player gets on a run, he

johnson. [laughter] >> what i'd like to ask, mr.l -- by the way, i'm happy to learn that your firm supports getting a handle on this kind of copyright infringement. but i got to ask you, do you think it's morally right for your firm to continue to engage in the use of copyrighted material without the owner's consent? from a moral standpoint? i'd like for you to answer that. is it right? is it fair? >> i think that when we -- when we look at this issue, our understanding and kind of as we look at our entire business, it's not the point nor the goal of justin.tv to distribute copy written kent. -- content. when you look atfñ> where justiv began we started broadcasting one person's life online. that was our cofounder. and the viewers of that original broadcast were so excited by the potential of live video online that they, too, wanted to create their own live content. they didn't want to broadcast their entire lives but they wanted to share live video of interesting events. >> now, that is different from -- there's no need for consent

it has not been finalized, but bart johnson did brief me on what he is proposing to do.at the top level, i think it makes -- it makes sense, but i would like to reserve the right, if confirmed, to be able to make adjustments to that. and so i would prefer to come up and brief you after i'm confirmed, if i'm confirmed on where that is. >> if i understand you correctly, you are saying you have some input into the realignment? >> yes, madame. >> and therefore it is not finalized. we will take you at your word, because i think it is fair to say that there are some weaknesses in your area. and we would like to see them corrected so the correction you could bring about could be very important, and we would like to have you discussed that with us, if that is agreeable with you. >> yes, madam chair. >> thank you very much. let me move to mr. goldberg. we talked this morning about the fact that you have not previously worked in an intelligence agency, or produced intelligence analysis. now, you do have significant experience in a lot of different areas in receiving it in particul

one, i first appreciation of free enterprise i think came when i heard the then chairman of johnson & johnson, i can't remember his name, jim burke, say that our priority is to serve our customers, and second to serve our communities third, to serve our employees and then if those are well served, our shareholders will benefit. and i think one of the things that it's happened is we have flipped its so that people, shareholders and bottom line. and they got bonuses without going through the kind of humanitarian approach and i have been uncomfortable with good capitalism because i have been trying to find what good is but i think what you have said here today says to meet humanitarian capitalism, capitalism that serves people whether then problems and i think we started its-- i think we started being critical of greed not at the top but we started pointing it out with trade union movement. when the trade unionists were using their power in the railroad industry just to add workers and build their unions without relating it to productivity. you see, and i never had a strike as a city emp
