barclays economist michelle meyer says there's nothing in bernanke's comments that changes her outlook for rates. >> bernanke maintained the language that they think conditions warrant exceptionally low levels of interest rates for an extended period of time. so, i would say that we still feel comfortable with our view that the first interest rate hike won't occur until september. >> reporter: the fact that bernanke released his remarks today may itself be significant. some economists believe the fed chief wants to call attention to a significant policy shift and give the markets a chance to digest it. erika miller, "nightly business report", new york. >> suzanne: the top republican on the house panel investigating toyota's recalls, darrell issa of california, wants the company's president, akio toyoda to appear before congress later this month. that hearing was set for today, but postponed because of bad weather. the storm also forced toyoda to delay his planned trip to the u.s. because of the recent recall controversy, toyota executives in the u.s. thought about canceling an appearan

stephanie meyer of the twilight fame. eclipse, you know, people coming in from six states away.s the gambit. >> how does it help the bookstore. what's in it for you? >> i think the biggest thing is the challenge of letting people know that we do events is always tricky. you know it, seems like every time we do one of these big events we have people who live in the city and even in the neighborhood that are like, oh, i knew you were a bookstore. i didn't know you had authors where we host, you know, 20, 25 authors a month. so getting people -- getting that top of mind awareness is probably the biggest benefit but also just having people experience an event here, understand how we do it with the line letters and just kind of getting that muscle memory almost of knowing what it takes to get from their door to our door and back to their door will hopefully convert people from maybe a once or twice a year visitor to someone who comes in and just reads a lot more. >> my name is nina. i'm from here in cincinnati. >> what time did you get here this morning? >> about 7:30.

chad meyers is watching the storm as it moves northeast. >> it is moving from memphis and mississippind alabama with rain on up to the northeast, and as it does, that it is going to run into the colder air. they come together and the moisture comes up here and the colder air gets here in time and that is going to make a big-time snow event. there is a number of areas of snow and different types of snow and snow in the richmond and delmarva areas and different from what is in d.c. and baltimore. it depends what is in the atmosphere above you. there is a lot of rain to the southeast, but as the storm heads to the northeast, that is where the storm develops into the mid-atlantic states i will call it, where we talk about near the carolinas, you will get north of that line, and that is where it is all going to turn into snow. it starts tomorrow night. d.c. and baltimore could be well into the one-foot category. the good news, it is friday night and people hopefully will go home and stay home and we are hearing some of the bakeries are working overtime to put it on the bread back on the sh

it host: this is for meyers in florida. we go inside a hospital, we have all of these services available to us and everything. we get a semiprivate room. we get a little basin to wash our teeth with. there is a lot of cost that can be limited in the delivery of health care. we do not need all of these accessories, for example. we need to go back to decreasing the cost of hospital services. for example, i had an x-ray down of myç elbow and that extraçt afoul month -- $1,000. çthat machine has already been çw1çlpyçi]paid for.çt( you understandçç what i am sa? host: did you break it? caller: i have a tendency of falling because i have a brain injury. the point is, why is that so expensive? the hospitals need to be able to get money so as to be able to offer the other little services that they do when a person is hospitalized. i think that we have to scale down. there was a time when the words were used -- wards were used. i do not think we should be attacking doctors because when you put in comparison somebody who wor

in some ways, this conference is the living embodiment of a theory developed by frank meyer, who manyewers will remember or no, but he was the conscience of the early movement, but review editor of "the national review." in the early days we had three factions. we had what were then called anti-communist conservatives who today we would call national defense conservatives. we had free-market and limited government conservatives, the economic wing. and then what we call traditional conservatives, who were the family values, religious folks who were in the movement. and they were constantly arguing about some things because they had different priorities. his view, which came to dominate the movements are the growth is, look, you people all have a common interest -- this is a coalition of people who agree on most things and disagree on some things. it is interesting because over the years -- we get attention because we do a straw poll that talks about the favre ability of politicians -- but we ask a number of other questions designed to see how those groups are represented at this confer

i did meyer him before he took the job and i admire him all lot more after the job he has done as secretary of treasury. the name of the book is called on the brink and that is where we were september october 2008 but at that time, our e economy, our financial world went into cardiac arrest. we had four people in the operating room we were very fortunate as a country to have in place, hank, ben bernanke kumbaya tim geithner and sheila bair the head of the fdic. i know a lot of people and finance and business and government. i cannot think of for that would have done a better job. but to look back of our country's financial system throes of during that period. some of you were in a party i was that in 2008 when the talk, when you have 3.5 four more trillion held by 30 million people on a sunday night are worried about whether they can get their money, that money was half of all deposits held in the banks at that time. you have a panic. you have commercial paper frees up entirely and some of the biggest companies described in the book worried if they would be payable in a short period of time

it is turning into a meyer. the americans are tired of it. we cannot afford it. afford this anymore. host: any thoughts? guest: the caller mentioned iraq, which has sort of taken a back seat with all of the attention on afghanistan. and i think vice president biden said the of the day that he thought iraq was going to be one of the success stories for the obama administration. we will see. troops are supposed to withdraw this year. at best, u.s. officials are cautiously optimistic, but whether or not the iraqi government is going to be able to provide the kind of a security and stability for its people and have a stable government is something we do not know the answer to yet. host: birmingham, alabama, gwenn on the democratic line, good morning. caller: good morning, i always liked your unbiased opinions, mr. isikoff. i think it is a great impact that we captured the second in command of the taliban. it shows that some countries are working with american intelligence. that gives me some hope. and i agree with president obama, with them catching the second-in-com
