as i read from -- about her and e read about sicily tyson --c cily tyson, it does not get easier as you get older. so if you want to do this -- you're still young guy. it does not get any easier. you might want to figure something out soon. i do not want you to live to get to the point where you regret you did not do it. >> that is true. 60 is knocking on the door here. a few weeks away here. but we will see. right now, and i always have done, i like making my new -- movies and the world of film making, that is what really turns me on. always has done. still does. so we will see about the theater. do you find, how the love for doing stuff that is not the blockbuster stuff, when you know what that sort of a claim feels acclaimstion mark -- feels like? well, it's a good question. i am not sure i can answer it correctly. i follow my heart and the work is there. i do not look for blockbusters. if someone were to give me a blockbuster and it was the correct one, i would probably say yes. i have always as i say, considered myself a working actor and you have to, you have to find the work and

a ship was thought to be heading to sicily before the accident. as many as 10 people are still missing. the port is one of the busiest in italy. in the news ahead, art imitating life. that and the headlines in a moment. >> back with the top stories on al jazeera. an egyptian court has rejected an appeal by prosecutors over the so-called battle of the camel in cairo. 24 egyptian officials were found not guilty. the ee you's foreign affairs spokesman said the organization is behind the joint russian-u.s. proposal to end the conflict in syria. talks with the syrian government and opposition will start by the end of the month. manchester united's alex ferguson will retire by the end of the season, stepping down after 26 years in charge of the club. a leading candidate impact is -- in pakistan's general election has suspended his campaign for one day out of her space -- out of respect for his rival, imran khan, who is recovering from a fall. >> pakistan's rising political star imran khan fell off the campaign trail. he was at an election rally when he

this number is equivalent to the combined populations of hong kong, israel, and sicily to the medicare program. hospitals and doctors and nurses and the entire delivery system are and will be under increasing pressure to take care of everyone. are we ready for that? medicare pays for residency training. they pay for almost all of it. they pay for teaching physician salaries and other expenses. medical graduation is certainly on their minds as many things are. it was funded by $9.5 million in medicare, 5.8 million in medicaid, including accommodation of federal money. as well as state money. it is being scrutinized. i can do three things this morning. identify where the money goes and how it is being used, second, what it means for patients for incentives of the program including physicians and many of you, and i would like to make the case for medicare spending to sustain this program for current and future generations, for those of you who are young people. you want to count on medicare and ensure that it is there for you. so where does medicare's money come from, and how is it being

for example, pat was in all kinds of trouble for slapping g.i.s in slis sicily. roosevelt brought him into his office, heaped praise on him. he was the same with eisenhower. he had an interesting relationship with george marshall. george marshall was the man he leaned on not just as his command of the army but in almost every decision he tried to first name george marshall because f.d.r. had that very warm, inviting personality and marshall chilled him on that. so he remained to the end of the war general marshall whereas ike was "ike." george was "patton." >> schieffer: and marshall always called eisenhower "eisenhower." he was a very formal man. what about the relationship between churchill and f.d.r.? >> well, it starts out with the united states as the junior partner because by the time we get in the war the brits have been in since 1939, we're going into 1941. in that, i think that roosevelt deferred to churchill on military matters because churchill was a graduate of their equivalent of west point. sanders was a veteran of the world war. he had been first o

people and we may hear today them say that there were f-16s 1,000 miles away at the aviano air base in sicilyy could have made it within 7 hours. >> that's not what the interest review board says. >> four americans died and there are a lot of decent people in government and elsewhere who want to know the answers. what i think we can say with certainty is the explanation for this attack immediately after was a lie and the people repeating these talking points to knew they were untrue and continue to repeat them anyway. nobody on the ground believes it was a spontaneous mob action. >> the cia first believed it was the video that caused it. that's what the intelligence agency said. there was no willful lie. this is a talking point on the right to go after hillary clinton and barack obama. alisyn: the cia talking points did make reference to terrorism. >> they didn't have all the information. it was kay to the i can. as you know, information comes in, you change what you know as new information becomes available. there is no willful desire to lie about this. >> to say this is a broadside in the 2

when you were on stage with someone like sicily, is there a space in your sort of creative being whereg the reactions of someone else >> absolutely that's the great thing about being an actor and also doing it eight shows a week, it's always different, every show is different, the tempo is different. the mood is different. and she is a true comedienne. i want people to know that it's -- it's sentimental and heartfelt but she gets some laughs and she is no joke. she knows exactly,get those laughs. so, watching her in her element and taking sentences that normally wouldn't get a laugh and seeing where the glimmer of i can make this into a laugh and seeing her do it every night? amazing. >> i was thinking about the scope of your career from miss america to film star. >> 30 years. 30 years. >> tv star. saved the best for last, mixed tapes for my girlfriend. >> did you really? >> of course i did. of course i did. >> you're admitting that? >> i made the tape. vanessa -- >> did it work? >> did it work? i married her. >> oh! >> thanks to vanessa williams "saving the best for last." now here yo

it was a 7 1/2 hour attack and that the planes couldn't have been scrambled from the air base in sicilythey could have buzzed the scene or scared people off or sent a show of force. all we know it was sent from africon, the command center there we don't know who said don't help. >> and governor huckabee last night raising the question, how high up the chain does this go? take a listen. >> the order to actually engage troops in a rescue ou%q%=9 has to come from the president é%un, and then the commander has certain authorities. but it has to come from the president to put troops in harm's way. now, in that case, because we don't know enough of the details, that could have come from the commander of the africa command that told them to stand down. play that all the way out. who told him not to allow them to. when you are under attack, we're going to be there. that was the whole point of it. so to say that we didn't know enough to put them -- i don't buy that. i think that is incredible and i think somebody needs to be taken to task over that. >> general boykin, a man who speaks with auth

rhode and very tragic to read but then took back to reclaim for to proclaim and did the same thing in sicily and then in a nation of greek speakers he really did well in the west and like most byzantine commanders he was not corrupt he had to maintenance because there were always outnumbered and rely on discipline and mercenaries but he said he had to be a fish that swam in a local pond they did not loot or steel but he included local populations to help been used tactics and is able in a period of 25 years to reclaim over two generations the byzantine power in the data of wes and and when he finished it was 80% so so there was the plague that wiped out 1 million when that land was lost to the rise of islam but lo and behold for most people thought the greek speakers would fall around 680 there lasted 900 more years they did not fall until black tuesday all because of the efforts but this is when the church was built and he was a man of his time but i thought is there a modern counterpart? one case i made exception was william tecumseh sherman. most of you remember gettysburg july 4 through
