residents, priests, shopkeepers, who carried victims in their arms and delivered water and blankets, lined up to give blood, opened their homes up to total strangers. and the heroic federal agents and police officers who worked together throughout the week, often at great risk to themselves, to keep our communities safe. as a country, we are eternally grateful for the profound sacrifices they make in the line of duty. sometimes making the ultimate sacrifice to defend the people they've sworn to protect. if anyone wants to know who we are, what america is, how we respond to evil and terror, that's it. selflessly, compassionately, and unafraid. through the days that would test even the strurdiest of souls, boston's spirit remains undaunted. america's spirit remains undimmed. our faith in each other and our love for this country, our common creed that cuts across whatever superficial differences we may have, that's what makes us strong. that's why we endure. in the days to come, we will remain vigilant as a nation and i have no doubt the city of boston and those around it will continue

she went and stood next to local shopkeepers and sympathized with their losses of stock and their broken windows, and seemed to dismiss any of the rage on the streets. that, as a national leader, was a serious failure. an important point. what was her great crisis? guest: clearly, the falkland wars, invaded by an argentine dictatorship. a lot of her military commanders said, we are not sure we can pull this off, getting them back. we set off with this extraordinary convoy of royal naval ships, commandeered civilian container ships, ocean liners turned into troop ships. , they cameled in under attack by argentine plains, and some were sunk. if a couple more had been sent, we would have lost. she would have been drummed out of office. she would go down as a risk- taking failure of a politician after only a few years in office. she was fantastically lucky. she got secret help from president reagan, although america was officially indifferent. they gave us military intelligence. we were fantastically lucky. that was the moment she gambled everything. it was an extraordinary gamble. in winnin

thatcher, and there is a lot of snobbery both social -- she's a shopkeeper's daughter. that means she's not, you know, a horny--handed son of the soil or the stalwart member of the working class. she's a petty bourgeois who everybody has affected to dislike. she's not a grandee, she momentum own land. she borrowed everything, you know, on her way to the top. and there is, there's no doubt, class still plays an enormous part. and people think she may have done an enormous turn for our country and looking back on it, i suppose drudgingly they will admit she made changes which were for the better, but they just won't quite forgive her for being blunt and doing some, taking some very difficult decisions and putting people's noses out of joint in order to get the change. before i came here, i went to a breakfast with nicolas sarkozy. he is in exactly the same position as margaret thatcher is. and it's very interesting because he's got a lot of the charm of reagan, but he doesn't have the steel of thatcher. then the french are not going to give up their 30-hour week, their se

keach: these tombstone engravings depict the daily lives of shopkeepers and artisans. ceren and copan, production in the roman world was based primarily in the household. yet, as in teotihuacan, roman households specialized in providing goods and services. these households represented the middle levels of roman society. but what set rome apart was the extraordinary wealth of its elite. wallace-hadrill: what we have here is a really magnificent house, built in a prime position over the city walls, looking out over the bay of naples, and built on three levels, almost tumbling over the walls. it's obviously the house of an extremely wealthy person. keach: as in teotihuacan, the elite of ancient rome paraded their wealth on the walls of their homes. wallace-hadrill: framed by this sort of confectionery of columns, you have a great panel picture of three gods, suitable company for the great master. we've got a backdrop. and the function of the backdrop is to set the scene and to create a suitable stage on which the owner can perform. the owner may be sitting here holding co

two chicago shopkeepers.ere fighting back when two men tried to rob their store at gun point. this happened tuesday evening at a souvenir shop. the robbers pull out the gun. they demanded cash. that's when the 62-year-old store owner grabbed the bat. started swinging. check that out. one of the robbers started firing his gun. he shot his accomplice in the leg. the accomplice limped out of the store. the owner was hit by gunfire in the thigh. he kept on swinging and swinging. you saw, there he is, the gunman coming back for more right there. the swinging apparently not enough. his brother springs into action, throwing a chair, a fire extinguisher. he's back home this morning. she he's got a good swing. there's the fire extinguisher. he's getting that leg treated. the suspects remain at large. i would say probably heavily bruised and at large this morning. >> got him in the head with that bat. wow. that is incredible. i would say, don't do that, right? >> not to him. >> actually, he's got a gun. the guy's got a

they would go and -- the soldiers would introduce themselves to the individuals along the way, shopkeepers and such and say we're here for your protection, and they would hear back via -- through the translator that, we are were we support you thank you for coming here and liberating us, and then the patrols go on, and then anthony, who speaks fluent arabic, would pop into those places and say, so, what do you think of the americans? we oppose them a thousand percent, you know. they're here to kidnap or women. we will fight them at the first opportunity. and it was -- it wasn't a problem of poor translation. it was that they were saying one thing to the uniformed military and another thing to somebody who spoke their language and they were sharing what they felt. that was just such an important story. ran on the front page of the "washington post" but still sticks in any memory. one of those -- if the journalism we saw in the united states in the runup to the war left a lot of citizens wanting to credit ulouse, too quick to accept claims of weapons of mass destruction and it would be a cak

i was talking to one of the shopkeeper next door who said that they didn't even realize anything had happened million the police put up this yellow crime tape. so it looks like no one was hurt. we don't know if a weapon was displayed. all of those things we are hoping to have answered once police are able to comment officially on this robbery. >> mark seagraves reporting live from chevy chase at the jewelry store there. >> no injuries but a lot of stolen jewelry. that's for sure. the timeup. including storm team 4 meteorologist tom kierein. back with another check of your weather. >>> wizards center jason collins became a household name overnight. he has more than 87,000 twitter followers. growing more than 2,000 in the last 24 hours. collins just became the first active athlete in any major u.s. sport to announce he's gay. he tweeted last night that he's been overwhelmed with the support that he received. he told george stephanopoulos this morning that he always knew he was gay. >> i describe it as you know the sky is blue but you keep telling yourself that it is red. >> you fought.

brother why did you put up the sign the shopkeeper recalled him asking angrily. it's not right. a story of another run in. quote on january 18th, 2013 one of our preachers noted that dr. martin luther king jr. was a great person remembered in history. the older suspect stood up, shouted, and called him a nonbeliever, said he was contaminating people's minds, and began calling him a hypocrite. people of the congregation in turn shouted back to the older suspect, leave now. due to the congregation's disapproval he left the sermon. these accounts are so important in our collective attempt to answer the why question because they are these tiny little windows into the fascinating and awful psychological process that i think so many people are just trying to understand. the process of going from a person who sees the world through the framework the majority of us share no matter our politics to a view of person who views the world in such a strange and dire way he could possibly place bombs next to crowds and bystanders. how did the process happen in the case of tamerlan tsarnaev? it
