class have said this is a good thing that nearly all unanimously europhiles where is the population of morse said that the debate has featured quite a lot of misinformation and ignorance here in croatia a lot of people who if things. don't have all of groves torn up the fleets of the tallinn trawlers will come and steal all the fish things like this that simply aren't borne out by the evidence but nevertheless that has meant that the that the debate around it has been very rocky essentially the pro camp says this is very good economically for croatia croatia in in a very weak economic position at the moment and one. the. credit rating is nearly jumped and it's because of this excess exception that that credit rating and foreign investment will be rescued the people on the camp say well that's not a team so we're also going to be joining in. to talk about it it seems like we're starting to lose you but very briefly is it the right time for croatia to join the e.u. with all the recent economic troubles and it seems that the anti european union feeling is kind of spreading throughout the block.

have it so this is so slight look like a search machine in the internet give marks all full context morse and i'm a kickboxing and as i say sparring is very difficult in america because i remember getting ready for vladimir klitschko fight you know his style was not a typical american style so what i ended up door was reading guys from the other side of whoa to get them to can to find out that they were not that kind of guy that i nice i need to get rid of them and at the last moment is to try to find somebody else or i would hurt the guy inspiring and have to try to replace them and there's no outlets out there no i'm no i guess role just to farming sparring partners jim xm energy promoters anything to do for context for stuff for fighting connect. and i like you all good luck with that side because i really am i mean it's a great job you devalued but still well i want to talk about about this the tendency that it used to be i mean boxing used to be done in asia by the brits well it is a british well so this is understandable and then there was a black down and so and most mostly afro-am

the nationals now plan to use adam laroche and mike morse at first base. >>> capitals hosting the defending stanley cup champion boston bruins without alex ovechkin tonight. the suspension runs until february 4th, which means it runs through all-star break. today he said if he's suspended he's not playing in the all-star game. the biggest healthy name in the game not going to be at all-star weekend because of his suspension that seemed overly aggressive, the caps were expecting punishment for ove after this hit. they were expecting one game, not three. i was disappointed, actually. most things, it's going to be like that. my game is played -- i didn't think it was a dirty hit. he don't get hurt. he doesn't feel that because he's a suspended player, he doesn't feel like he deserves to be there. so he's not going to go. he doesn't want to be a distraction to the event. >> my heart is not there. i love the game. it's a great event, i love to be there, i'm suspended. i feel i'm not deserving to be there right now. if i'm suspended i have to be suspended. >>> down in mobile, alabama, the redskin

but finally, though, we're going to be into a mild trend here and it's going to last for several morse days into the weekend and perhaps all the way into next week. i'm looking off into the distant future, don't see any major cold wave coming our way. but you know it's inevitable. we'll get another one later this winter. certainly not in the next ten days. right now, it's 34 at reagan national with a cloudy sky. we've got a general wind out of the south-southwest. on the radar, we have a few flurries trying to reach the ground in montgomery, fredry and howard counties in maryland. and in northern virginia from southern loudoun county into western fairfax, stafford getting a few flurries there as well as southeastern culpepper county. they're moving off to the east. temperatures are generally in the upper 30s throughout much of the region. it's milder out into the mountains. we'll have that mild air arriving here later today as the cloud cover breaks up. we'll get increasing sunshine. sunrise is at 7:27. we should make it into the low to mid 40s this afternoon. and a look at your evenin

the, was the ex-con whom the police initially suspected was the perpetrator in the murders of the morsereer as a violent criminal. [laughter] his heydey was probably 1929 when he was a henchman as one of his family members put it in the al capone gang. and wilson owned the getaway car used in the st. valentine's day massacre that year. he didn't own it under that name. in fact, as i discovered, he used at least 16 different aliases and was imprisoned all over the country, but he did have quite a colorful criminal career. well, thank you all for coming. thank you, book passage. thank you, john fromer.

you're trying to signify morse code, whatever analogy you want to hear it, the people who want to hear course, that's not what i meant. i meant x, y, and z. built into the modern use of some of these words is the ability to deny that you mean anything horrible by them in the first place. >> professor, speaker gingrich is clearly suffering no repercussions from his confrontation with juan williams on monday's debate. at least among his devoted fans. listen to this is exchange, please, between gingrich and one of his supporters less than two hours ago. >> i would like to thank you, mr. speaker for putting mr. juan williams in his place the other night. [ applause ] his supposed question was totally ludicrous. and we support you. >> thank you very much. >> juan williams put in his place. another standing ovation. your response, professor? >> i mean, whether intended or not, i'm sure that woman asking the question did not intend to signify black man in his place. but come on. that signifies in the history of american rhetoric where you were putting uppity black people in their place. juan

here's piers morse an. >>> next stop, new hampshire. i asked ron paul if he thinks he has a real shot there. >> it's a live free or die state. they're very freedom oriented. >> can a front-runner mitt romney now break out? >> it's sure nice to have a win. can we do better here in new hampshire? >> now it's the challengers. the news media continues to say he's the most electable republican when he can't even break out in his own party. >> in the end, nobody cares. >> jon huntsman is taking everything on in new hampshire. tonight i ask him can he win that huge bet. donald trump has a lot to say about the republican field. he'll grade all the candidates. this is "piers morgan tonight." good evening. we expected the caucuses to be close, but not that close. mitt romney wins by just eight votes. and on to new hampshire, where he has a much larger lead at the moment. today he pukd up an endorsement from john mccain. >> mitt romney and i and you believe that america's greatest days are still ahead of us. it just requires the kind of leadership

samuel fb morse went to paris as a painter, a very accomplished painter, who have done magnificent work including the great portrait of a full-length portrait of lafayette which hangs in the city hall in new york. he wanted to make himself better. it was while he was there, noticing what the french were doing, in science that he got the idea for the telegram. it's continuous. and, of course, more so now idea today when so much of theit's advances in medicine and science of medicine, science in generale and technology, are coming fromd all parts of the world.icine, it's exciting. general a technol there are no barriers. from just as there should be noworld. barriers between science andarrs art. there should be no barriers between science and art. the fact that morris was both a painter and a scientist was not seen as incongruous or somehow a contradiction. so be careful if you tell your children or your grandchildren you're good in math and science, stay away from english, history or art. nonsense. they should be interested in everything. [applause] >> this is c-span2 at the national boo

trying to do is get people to send those signals in a pattern that can convey information, sort of like morse you would have immediate recall of any piece of information stored in those databases. it's sort of like having it in your head. >> gretchen: what about all those private thoughts? anyway, immortality. you say people will be able to stop themselves from dying? they'll live forever? >> right. so how this would happen is through a combination of future genetic breakthroughs and nana robotics. as opposed to cyber nettic telepathy, that's based on science proven, it's very much on the theoretical realm of the future spectrum. so no one has built a nan robot work. it's an idea that comes from a great researcher named robert fritas. you would ingest a pill of a million of these. they would be on the nano scale. they would circulate through your bloodstream. they would remove pathogens, repair cellular damage, and they would basically prevent you from ever experiencing the symptoms of aging. and with that, you could live to be several hundred years old until humanity invented another system

and look not to lower -- mayors and governors not to lower education standards in their districts so morse kids could falsely achieve certain levels but actually raise them. we need mayors who go shang pie and taipei and come back and say you understand if your kid wants to get in grenle who they are competing with? they're not competing with the kids in claremont or sack cramentio. they are competing with a global audience. we need better leaders and neighbors who are ready to pay education taxes to support local schools whether they have kids in them or not, ok. because without that, i don't have to tell you, you're going to pay the school or you're going to pay for the new prison. there's a very direct line between failure of local schools and predicting prison population. we need better neighborsers. we need better business leaders. business leaders who take an ninet upgrading schools around them. don't say i can't get it here. i will go to bang la dore. ok. lastly we need better students. we talk in the book about a young woman profiled in "the new york times" that sent 4,500 text mes
