scotty dog. well, it wasn't true. and it turned out not to be true, but it gave him a terrific campaign issue. and the result was that the first major speech he gave when he returned from his long trip was to a dinner group in washington, d.c., i believe it was the teamsters union annual convention. he talked to them, and he said toward the end of the speech -- his speech writers, by the way, told him don't put this in, it's not a good idea. he said, well, i'll ad lib it. and he did. he was a very good ad libber. he said, of course, i don't resent attacks and my family doesn't resent attacks, but my dog does. you know, my dog's scotch, and being a so thety, as soon as -- scotty, as soon as he learned that the republicans in congress had concocted a story that i left him behind on the aleutian islands and sent a destroyer back to find him and it cost the taxpayers of $20 million, his scotch soul was furious. he has not been the same dog since. well, this as far as the reporters and other listeners were concerned said r

the team is led by veteran archaeologist scotty macneish. they are seeking evidence of the first inhabitants of the valley. when macneish first excavated here in 1962, he discovered a time capsule of human occupation at a site called purron cave. macneish: here we are back at purron cave. we really haven't dug in it in almost 30 years. walls all preserved. even the trowel marks we made to mark off strata are still preserved and we have all sorts of neat floors of charcoal one on top of the other. the amazing thing about this cave is that we really have unbelievable preservation. the reason we have preservation is it's so dry in this area that the bacteria of decay that destroy things can't live, so anything that's dropped in here, it dries up and dehydrates and lasts forever. keach: as macneish dug deep into the cave, traces of an early people emerged from an archaeological stratum he called el riego. macneish: here is our el riego layer, 8,600 years old. now, in it we not only have a date in terms of the year, but we have some idea of what

in an t then one day my wife saidy, scotty, andrew wants to see you, she didn't say who it was, but y something hit me. who's andra harris? the boy i talked to three yearsd earlier had driven down from west point new york with his dad to come see me. and i don't know if i knew that they were the days to come, that thea impact i made a nighttime childt had done a 180 and now this child was positively impacting me in an amazing way. >> you can watch this and other programs online at booktv.orrick. >> coming up next, edward griffin at freedom fest. mr. griffin talks about his book, the creature from jekyll island, a history of the creation of the federal reserve system. this is just over a minute. .. and show the pictures there. those of the guys. and the funny thing about that piece of history is that the federal reserve bill was being shown for the american people at that time as a piece of legislation that would somehow control those big bad bankers. what they did not realize, the big bag bankers electing a right there, the epitome of the great power centers of banking. there were the

. >> plus "american idol" scotty mccreary takes a tumble off stage. who he blames for this happening. when we come back. >> he blamed someone else? >> i guess who he blamed for it. [ male announcer ] in 1996, president clinton and a bi-partisan congress helped end welfare as we know it, by requiring work for welfare. but on july 12th, president obama quietly announced a plan to gut welfare reform by dropping work requirements. under obama's plan, you wouldn't have to work, and wouldn't have to train for a job -- they just send you your welfare check. and welfare to work goes back to being plain, old welfare. mitt romney will restore the work requirement, because it works. [ romney ] i'm mitt romney and i approve this message. >>> in the buzz bin this morning, things have gone from bad to worse for chad johnson. vh1 pulled his reality series off the air. this comes just two days after the one-time nfl star was arrested on domestic violence charges. his new wife evelyn says johnson headbutted her during a heated argument. the miami dolphins released joh

not good, scotty, in terms of the numbers. back to you. >> that's where you see stocks move like that. for get yankees, red sox, doouk, north carolina or cowboys and redskins. apple versus google may be the biggest rivalry around on wall street. the latest is siri. and darren, it's getting nasty again. >> yeah, this is the latest in an ongoing war between two giant companies. this certainly ups the stake in the companies. obviously, the latest news being, you know, apple removing youtube from its applications on iphone. after the google maps issue, siri, there's clear indications that the relationship between these two companies is deteriorating quickly. personally, i think google is the one that has the most to lose here. >> why is that? >> ing wit well, i think over t google's search positions on apple products is in jeopardy. the company pays a lot of money to be on the apple products, and the only real alternative right now is microsoft and bing. so in'm not sure apple will go that route either. with siri being developed a

scotty? >> reporter: well, in fact the senators are streaming in right now for a 6:00 session. they are widely expected to push this gambling bill through. so that's just another step in the direction of a dramatic expansion of gambling in maryland. they will then kick it on to the house of delegates, a much more fractured body on this issue where there are a lot higher hurdles for gambling next week. the senate bill will clear the way to build a casino at national harbor in prince george's county and also legalize live table games like blackjack and craps statewide resulting in vegas style casinos ranging another $2 million for schools. but the bill in some cases pits county against county. anne arundel for instance is opposed fearing new competition from national harbor and prince george's county would hurt the new maryland live casino at anne arundel mills. those divisions are most sharp in the house of delegates where republicans are taking shots for rush the bill through. >> we have real problems to fix and we're down here in a special session for an issue that is not an e

real information and also for solidarity because lonely by scotty you had to help opposition where you had. people detained so you were also helping the opposition yes it's what we call opposition the civilian or push your position which is not under any party and that i am not out of. you have you have always done today peaceful demonstration ok. so we had. to free to set free people also if there is a need of humanitarian help even we had a position meeting in our monastery and the first appeal for the day i logged and recourse in gates and was in our monastery and i'm sure very well aware of all the criticism that has been thrown your way what is your your relationship with the assad regime. you know i have normal relationships with. a religious entity and our of footy is religious it's not political. it's not even civilian you know we had mainstream reports that came to syria and for iran for a while i went with them on the scene you know but in the january. in december i asked to go to a position where the good were already implemented ok and so i could have an idea as an eyewitne

[ sally umlaut ] it's greek-style yogurt. thick, scrumptious, and more protein than those regular yogurts. are those almonds i see in the corner thingy? caramelized almonds i think you'll find. well, who wants ordinary run-of-the-mill almonds when you could have the caramelized kind? if i was this girl, i'd caramelize my whole apartment. weird. this greek style yogurt has style. you can say that again. why thank you. this greek style yogurt has style. okay. stop saying it now. you're sending me mixed messages.

by the republican congressmen to raise hell with him for having abused the defense forces for his scottie dog. it wasn't true and it turned out not to be true but they gave him the terrific campaign issue and the result was that the first major speech he gave when he returned from his long trip was to a dinner group in washington, d.c.. i believe it was the team's union annual convention. he talked to them and she said towards the end of his speech the speechwriters by the we told him don't put this in. it's not a good idea. he said have lived it and he did. he said of course i don't resent the tax. my family doesn't resent the tax. but he does resent them. scotch and since he learned that the republican in congress has come concocted a series that i left him behind and sent a destroyer back to find him cost the taxpayers to or three or eight or $20 million his scotch soul was furious and he hasn't been the same sense. this house far as the reporters and the listeners were concerned said roosevelt is bck. this was the old roosevelt. and she determined to take not the fellow speech. he did

i think it was before one of my surgeries and said, hey, scotty, why don't you say a prayer? i said, no. i don't know how to pray, and i don't know god. and i think it, the room went dead silent. like if there were cockroaches in the room, you would have heard 'em. my wife went back to her room realizing, you know, i'd been married to an awesome man, and i still am, and i'd be fine married to a blind guy, but being married to someone who didn't believe in what he believed in before, that was something different. so she began to pray. friends began to pray all around the world. and for me it was a choice that i had to make. it was a personal choice that i had to make. i knew i had support. friends would come into my room on a daily basis singing christian songs. i know doctors thought our room was creepy because balloons would be coming out, i thought the room was huge. apparently, it was like a little match boxcar. but it was that support. but again, it still came back to me. i was the one that had to make a choice. i was the one that had to choose to make a difference. my co

. >> thank you, scottie. we will pick up where you left off. that's right. there was almost a 12 year high for the nasdaq. 10 year plus high for the nasdaq 100. wow. we have full market coverage coming up as the run rolls on. we also have a brand new nbc news "wall street journal" poll coming out as we speak on how americans are likely to vote in november. and then, come with me, there is this. jim cramer. jim's not going to take the facebook fall anymore. listen up, america. >> i can't believe anybody wonders why the individual investor doesn't run! wow, i would run. if i didn't sit here and work 20 hours a day, i would run! >> tyler continues on vacation. simon is in with me at the nysc. >> good afternoon, sue. if you look at the headlines on the markets today, perhaps it's lunchtime not spectacular until you understand the context and exactly where we are inching to. you touched on it. the nasdaq, 100 at its highest level since december 2000. the dow nearing a close not seen since december the 28th, 2007, s&p hitting its highest interday level since may 2

it was dry the last time we spoke to you, scottie. >> reporter: yeah. it's a little bit strange to be talking about a hurricane that is this close and be standing here without any rain gear and without any rain falling. i can tell i, the winds are picking up and the clouds are building to the south, where the storm is, as it moves ashore. in this quadrant of the storm, there's always a danger not just of wind and rain but also tornadoes. we're being vigilant as now hurricane isaac moves in on new orleans. there has been a lot of comparison, because of the timing, between this storm and hurricane katrina. there's not much similarity other than that. a lot has changed in terms of new orleans' preparedness. there is now a 14.6 billion$14. upgrade of the levy system that protects new orleans including flood walls and new gates. they closed the gate at the 17th street canal for the first time. that was one of the big sources of the doctisaster that was hurricane katrina and now we're told there's no comparison between now and seven years ago. >> this structu

scotty? >> reporter: i guess you could say they've gone to the dogs down here. that's an awfully bad pun but governor martin o'malley really wanted this special session only be about the gambling session but the fact is there are a lot of people very concerned about the dog issue. they consider it an emergency and the senate is debating the issue right now. pit bull owners at the statehouse begging legislators to turn back an april court ruling that declares their dogs inherently dangerous. dominick was nearly killed in a 2010 mauling. his family's lawyer sued the landlord of the dog's owner and won. now shelters report a flood of abandoned pit bulls as landlords afraid of liability refuse to rent to dog owners. when our shelter opens, we have ain roof people that have to surrender their pit pull type dogs because their landlord is telling them they have to go. >> reporter: the proposed solution is to reform the law, to make all dog owners regardless of breed liable for injuries and damage done by their dogs and exempt landlords. senator brian frosh of montgomer

back to scotty. >> thanks for that. recent run-up in stocks keep the feds on the sidelines. the chances of the fed doing another easing to 40%. the firm's u.s. chief economist joins us now. sir, good to have you on the show. >> pleasure to be here. >> interesting way to enter the segment. how much do you think market gain has to do with the fed's way of thinking now. >> i think the market is optimistic. we have had a bounce in the numbers. there's some sense the economy is doing a little better. people are counting on qe coming soon, i think they are likely to be disappointed. >> people would say the fed, obviously aside from what's happening in the economy that the stock market matters inside the fed. right? you have this wealth effect. stock market doing bad. fed at this point in time would not want to see that. how much do you think it matters we've had this nice rally in does it take some of the pressure off bernanke to have to act? >> well, financial conditions do matter for forecast. there's no forecast. stocks are a big part of that. there's no question that that work

and one day my wife said, scotty, andrew wants to see you. she didn't say who it was, but something hit me. it was andrew harris, the boy who i had taught sunday school with three years earlier had driven down from west point, new york, with his dad to come and see me. and i don't know if i knew that day or in the days to come that the impact that i had made on in the u.s.a. itself horrendous dining area, which is dining area we are attacked, so we hope to see you out there. before writing this book, dan has been a writer for "the new york the "new york times" since 1989 before that she was a writer for affairs magazine, it was your correspondent for the "philadelphia inquirer" in investigative reporter for the trenton times in new jersey. in 2005, she's a finalist for a pulitzer prize and won a george polk award, the worst for investigative reporting and herbert goldsmith prize for her cds exposed in insurance and investment ripoffs of young military consumers. she's also a member of "the new york times" team that was a pulitzer finalist for

now back to scottie. >> all right, sue, look forward to that.you be putting your money in an economy of 2% growth? our next guest says to go big or go home. let's get our slow money trade from the portfolio manager at fidelity's four-star rated mega cap. thanks for coming on >> hey, scott. how are you? >> good thanks. apple is your top holding. so you like a little bit of tech. wells fargo, jpmorgan. you like the banks. >> i do. i like the mad cap financial in general. i think if you look at the financial sector we have some of the highest capital ratios we've had in decades. highest reserves we've had in a long time. some of these large cap financials have made very accretive acquisitions at the bottom of the cycle and have generated very strong earnings power since the last peak. i think as we get closer to a basel 3 capital ratios these companies will be able to return more of their free cash flow to investors and we're starting to see that happen this year. >> so you look past some of the negatives that most people talk about when they look

now back to scotty. >> yep. >> yep. >> we'll see you at the top of the hour.uch. >> you got it. >> awkward segway time. a check on the currency marks now. the euro rallying to seven-week highs. will important greek talks later this week with france and germany sustain the rally or until red flags? let's bring in kneale with bank of america. we'll get to your aussie dollar -- u.s. dollar trade in a second. i want to talk euro/u.s., the trade that matters most right now. euro has been resilient lately, gotten this pop, does it last? >> i think it probably will last in the near term, at least we are unlikely to see a resumption of the down trend since february of this year. we chop around in a bit of a range which no real decline is effectively good news for the euro and could in turn support it. as long as a lot of the euro crosses continue to grind higher, things like euro sterling, euro against the whole host of emerging market currencies start to remain stable you can see a bit more of inunwinding which could support the euro a little bit. in the near term pr

before my surgery said scotty, why don't you say a prayer? i said no. i don't know how to pray. don't know god. i think the room went dead silent. like if there were cockroaches in the room, you would have heard them.s my wife went back to her room,d. realizing i'd been married to ak austin man and i still am. awes, and i'd be fine being married to a blind guy, being married someone disseminated believesbei and before she began to pray at all around the world. tora and for me as a choice i had toc make. a personal choice they had to c make. anyway had support. had friends that come in on a daily basis singing songs, christian songs. dr. sutter room is creepyi know because the lives of out.lloons i thought it was huge. apparently he was sick a little matchbox car. littl but it is that support. it still came back to me. i was the one that had to make the choice. i had issues to make thech. difference. my company commander called me every day to see how i was my com doing. they were awesome friends. my brigade commander would call me every week to see how i was doing.brigade someth

and one day my wife said, scotty, andrew wants to see you. she didn't say who it was, but something hit me. it was andrew harris, the boy who i had taught sunday school with three years earlier had driven down from west point, new york, with his dad to come and see me. and i don't know if i knew that day or in the days to come that the impact that i had made on

scotty's sword to temper a shot that didn't work too well. eventually deibert and sean scully, who is a very polite gentleman to try to handle steve. it was stevie got the whole package. the temperamental mess is a part of it and it showed in how he cared. i tell the story in the book was steve watkin made by his house that he grew up in when he was very john and his dad -- he built a sensitive data and should and ship me to send them he touched it. he said my dad taught me to make the back of the fence is because the front. he said nobody over cedar know. my dad said, but you will now. and that is why even on the apple ii he wants the circuit court to be beautiful. and when they get to the macintosh, the next one over, even though you cannot open a commie he holds it up for a while because the chips on the circuit board are not neatly aligned. when they say nobody can open it, nobody will know. he says to the mac designers, you will know. and the other thing that is interesting in talking about steve's wozniak, steve jobs and steve had the p

i was just having a conversation off camera with scotty over here because here's the point.is down, just because a stock is down, doesn't mean an insider is not going to sell it. i'll tell you why. go back to pre-2008. there used to be an opinion and i dealt with plenty of executives, you own the stock and watch it go from 40 to 20. i'll wait. if you did that in 2008, you paid a handsome price for that. i disagree completely with s&p. i think you wake up tomorrow morning. if you have restricted stock and that stock is free to sell, the only thing that matters is where is that stock trading today. not where it was a month ago. the only thing you look at is what is that asset as percentage of my portfolio today, this morning, and nothing else should be relevant so i disagree completely with s&p. >> you have to worry about capital gains and future of that tax and election and polls and it's a complicated picture. >> only thing that's relevant if you wake up a restricted stock tomorrow that's not restricted is would i buy those shares at that price in the open market today? if t

. >> that's how we like to see you, scotty, dressed up. >> cleaned up. >> thank you very much.dlines today. best buy and groupon p carmichael son's hubert joly named new ceo. groupon, venture capitalist are exiting the daily deals website. joining us now for what we like to call of all segments, professor, good morning, to you. thanks for joining us. >> thanks, simon. >> if we were to parachute you in either of those two businesses, best buy and groupon, which one do you think you'd be more able to institute a turnaround, professor? >> well, i'm a professor for a good reason. i think i could actually do neither one. i think it's too early to say groupon needs a turnaround. we're dealing with social media business models that are pretty n new, we don't understand. when companies like groupon or facebook or zynga go public, they are not quite prepared for the quarter by quite a few scrutiny of that process. i don't know if the business models are sustainable or not. it's true not many other people know as well. >> professor, can you remind our viewers whether there has been anoth

come on, wake up, scottie!baron. >> thanks for your patience in the break. guest host mario gabelli as well. what is a skilled and seasoned investors like you think when they look at facebook and social media in general? >> well, we'd actually been to visit facebook about, i don't know, a month ago, two months ago. i thought it was a neat place to visit. reminded me of disneyland with the little walk through the property. i thought it was a neat company. i thought they know more about everyone than anyone else can and i think ultimately it will be a successful business. we've been working on it. we haven't decided whether or not we're going to invest in it but it is an attractive business in my opinion. >> what is your take, mario? >> we invest in what we know. we like to have a private market value. when we look at national fuel and gas we're buying significantly we can value for free. i can get almost 500 plus acres into marcellus for free, i know how to value that, i know how to do it. >> social media you ca

all of these are hidden inside of the hoody from scotty vest. >> i have one at home.ht here. you can hold a camera inside and still zips up so nicely you can't tell that you have any of your gear hidden in your person. >> you don't look as geeky as you sometimes do with your pocket protecter. >> exactly. >> and the ladies, too. you are holding up one of the ladies brand one. purple and small size. >> i likey. >> ipad in this and hide the head phones through the. this you don't have to see this long string hanging out. >> go all the way through the hood. missed any of these tips. find me later. full segment on foxnews.com so you can rewind it as many times as you want. >> glad to have you back because i couldn't have done that segment. coming up, is the obama administration cooking the books when it comes to immigration? making people believe they have deported more illegals than they really have. we break down the startling new claims ahead. >> then canceling a scheduled presidential forum citing a lack of civility among the campaigns. that was pastor rick warren and
