we have got to get to the point in newton,. they refitted the cat to produce wind turbines for alternative energy. they retrained 500 of those workers. it is not everybody, it is a lot of people and they are thinking along the lines of what we have been talking about where you link a high-school students to community college to prepare them for industries such as that. that is one thing you can do at the level of a small town. there are other things small towns can do. a group like in speak a li in d about our military personnel. they were serving before and during a time of war. this is an all volunteer army. this isn't an army that is drafted. people choose to serve. many people choose to serve for a combination of reasons. one of the most powerful reasons people choose to serve is the fact that this is the best opportunity that will come their way. they do so because they believe that they will get training, people believe they will get education and a good living wage by joining the service. and they do. and they don't. one

last night on hln's "the joy behar show" olivia newton-john said her own early detection of a breast cancer lump may have saved her life. >> you were in your 40s when you were diagnosed with breast cancer. >> yes. >> how did you detect it? >> i found the lump myself. >> you found it by breast exam? >> yes, self breast exams. that's why i'm so up in arms, why would they not advocate we do self breast exams. it's an obvious thing to do. it's common sense. if you find something that isn't right, then you go get it checked out, which is what i did. >> yes, we're going to get to that with the doctor. i just want to hear your story. did you follow it up with a mammogram. >> yes, i did. the mammogram actually was negative, which is unusual. i don't say that to scare people, but i instinctively felt there was something wrong. >> really. >> so did the doctor so he did a needle biopsy first, which was also negative which is not common either. but still didn't feel it was right because i'd had lumps before and i wasn't feeling my best. so he did a surgical biopsy and then found the cancer. so i

i think that isaac newton's theory of motion comes into place in politics. for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. it strikes me that the agenda that the president and his party have pushed into the american public's mind now is, from i think a lots of american's points of view, a radical or a bold one, and i think there is a reaction to that. i don't know how it plays out, how that river breaks into tributaries, whether it gets dammed by things. but i think we have qullsive forces, great volatility of public mood, fear, anger, hope in some elements still on the other side, and there is room for a tremendously dramatic both election in 2010 and in 2012. i've always thought that the best chance that any opposition party has is the worst the governing party does. if the governing party does well, you can be clever and not accomplish a lot. i think, just briefly, comparing this to 1994, when we republicans took over the house and the senate, i think times were less qullsive, but the republican -- con vullsive. we had a doctrine we were workin

actress olivia newton john talks about the good old days of "grease." >> after "grease" the movie youame a huge star. a big, big star. >> yes. it pushed me -- >> you're one of the few that looked like a teenager. >> it was really weird because i was 29, i think. >> you looked like a kid. some of them looked like they were post-menopausal. >> but, you know, it's weird how you look at yourself. i was so worried about it because of my age. i asked to do a screen test with john. >> pulled it off. you were adorable in that. >> catch the joy behar show. tonight's guest is comedian george lopez. >>> all right. bob van dillen joins us now for weather and, hey, man, pretty tough outside in the northwest. a double whammy and we're talking about the second part of the double whammy. >> we had one a couple of days ago. the storm dropped a lot of rain and wind. second one is moving in. look at the shape of the clouds. see the white strata going down the pacific. that's the warm side of the storm system. look at the puffy white cumulus behind it. very cold air over the warmer ocean water. warm air,

i think that isaac newton's law of motion always comes into play in politics.every action is an equal and opposite reaction. agenda of the president and his party have pushed into the american public -- a pretty radical or bold and we're seeing the reaction to that. i do not know how it plays out. how it breaks into tributaries but we have convulse of forces, great volatility of mood. hope alliance some elements still on the other side. there is room for dramatic election in 2010 and 2012. i have always thought that the best chance of any opposition party is the worst the governing party does. you may tactically be able to get further than you otherwise would. i think comparing this to 1994 when republicans took over the house and senate, the times were less convulsive but the republican party was better positioned. we were a better fighting machine. we had a clear leader and a doctrine we were working off of. we were coordinated. we knew what we stood for. that does not exist. the republican party is a mess but the forces are strongly and potentially with us.

unlike natural physics where sir isaac newton pointed out that action equals reaction, social chemistry reaction can be greater than action. name-calling in the kindergarten of life can lead to hardening attitude and sometimes physical responses. hands, civil discourse is about more than good manners. to label someone a communist may spark unspeakable acts. to call a country evil may cause a surprisingly dangerous counterreaction. how we lead or fail to lead in an interdependent world would be directly routed to howie our own history, by and diversity of experience is and how deeply we have come to understand and respect other peoples and societies. citizenship is hard. it takes a willingness to listen, watch, read and think in the ways that allow the imagination to put one person in the shoes of another. in this context, i have proposed that the neh encounter with the state humanity councils aimed at enlarging our understanding of america's traverse cultural heritage in the history, lynnwood and art of other societies. i have also determined to commit a 50 state's ability to her. not t
