. >> larry: steven smith will remain and bragman and penski will also be here. don't go away. how can you get back pain relief that lasts up to 16 hours? with thermacare® heat wraps. that's 8 hours while you wear it, plus an additional 8 hours of relief after you take it off! when i put it on the heat really releases all the muscles and the tension that i have in my lower back. it has to get into the muscles, can't just be on the surface because my pain's not on the surface. [ spokesperson ] thermacare® delivers heat that penetrates deep, warming the muscle right where it hurts -- to relax, soothe, and unlock tight muscles... for lasting pain relief. because it's deep penetrating when you finally take it off that relief lasts a long time. by the heat going in deep it almost pulls the pain out with it. [ spokesperson ] thermacare® works differently. while some other pain relief patches and creams may feel warm, they're really not. it takes away the pain, it relaxes the muscles. you've got to try it, because once you try it you'll be hooked. so if you've got pain, go to trytherm

i'm herb stevens the skiing weather man. >>> around either i here it mige croscross country skiing. the winter storm warning is from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. tomorrow night. in new jersey is where the stronger winds will be. as far as the winds are calm. we expect the winds to pick up, 15-20 miles per hour, gusting at 40 miles per hour. not quite blizzard conditions but certainly going to present problems out there. we urge you not to head out especially later tonight and into tomorrow as you will certainly notice the intensity of the snow picking up. we look at the sky watch hd radar right now. you can see it looks like it's on the edge down toward d.c. moving in our general area. this looks like a little snow falling downtown already but not saturated quite yet. we will see it later in the mornings and into the central counties by 9:00 this morning or so, by 11:00 or even into the noon hour and beyond we expect the snow to pick up into the central part and northern part of the state and pick up in intensity by later tonight all coming from the moisture we have been watching out of

right lane and shoulder are blocked at stevens. as we look around the city, no problems pretty clear as we see downtown from the tower. back to you. >> nice shot. 5:31 a.m. after two and a half feet of snow this is nothing but we have to take a little time to get going. >> allow yourself some time. what we will face once we walk outside hello linda you look nice and warm. >> i have lots of layers on. that is the key. so what you will be facing this morning, probably the hardest part is when you walk out your door because side streets, neighbourhood roads still iffy main roads looking great. here in towel son we have our ruler tells us 4 inches we got 4 inches, so when you walk out the door you will have to do shoveling this morning and we have tips for you because shoveling if you don't do it the right way can lead to bigger problems. especially with people with heart conditions. let's look at these tips we have put together for you. shoveling does a number on your heart so you want to keep somethings in mind if you are middle aged

steven is standing by on the telephone with the latest. good morning.ning us. >> good morning, joe and barbara. >> how are things moving right now? >> so far, things are going ll. we don't have any problems at all at metro rail, metro bus, and metro access. like the rest of the region, we are anticipating the worst weather to come later on this afternoon. as a result of that, we will be making our preparations later on this afternoon and this evening, at least on the rail side. we do anticipate suspending our above-ground rail service that could come very late this evening. and in terms of our metro bus service, we anticipate, depending upon the road conditions, we would expect our buses to go to snow emergency utes some time late this afternoon. and also the possibility exists that we would be suspending all of our bus service on the roads very late this evening as well. >> okay. steven, i think i heard that once there is 8 inches of snow on the ground, the above-ground operations of metro rail has to be cut. and i'm wondering, is there no equipment th

the spots up to the west up against the mountains, steven city, augusta, up into frostburg already between three and six inches of snowfall. again, we've got a long ways to go with intense rates tonight. one to three inches per hour and a forecast of 18 to 24 inches. we could slide into second or third place on record snowfalls for a season. meanwhile,hile that might sound amazing in itself, we know we've already had one storm, so this would be two record snowfalls in one season. >> yeah. that's unprecedented. we've never had two of our top-ten snowstorms here in washington occurred in one winter season. let's go back to the graphics. i wanted to show you that's the area -- there are spots getting a mixture now. might be some sleet. this is typical really of storms like this as they get going and because we still have that boundary of some of the warm atlantic air just beginning to get in on us at the midlevels of the atmosphere. the same time, the cold air is still trying to hold forth. where those greens are, there could be a mixture. moderate snows. we'll continue to see the warning and

sportswriter and nationally syndicated radio host steven a. smith. steven, good to see you.ay, his delivery today, help or hurt his efforts to rehabilitate? his public image? >> his delivery hurt his attempt to resurrect himself in the eyes of the public. it was an awful delivery. the words were definitely apropos. there was contrition in the words. he apologized to all the right people. the people who really mattered. in terms of his delivery it came across as too scripted, too choreographed, lacking sincerity severely and that's the kind of thing that's going to hurt him because he's never made an effort to necessarily ingratiate himself with the public at large. he marketed himself and his image to get paid but never ingratiated himself with the public at large. now that he had an opportunity to do so after this incident he didn't do a good job of it at my estimation. >> you're around professional sports all the time. take us inside that world. you heard tiger today say he felt entitled, felt he could get away with anything he wanted because of the money, because of his f

steven portnoy has the latest from washington this morning. steven? >> reporter: good morning. it was chilling testimony on capitol hill. intelligence officials telling congress that they expect terrorists to try to attack the u.s. over the next three to six months. the answer came in response to a question from the intelligence committee chair, dianne feinstein. every member of the panel agreed with the national intelligence director's answer. >> what is the likelihood of another terrorist attempted attack on the u.s. homeland in the next three to six months? high or low? director blair? >> an attempted attack, the priority is certain, i would say. >> mr. pennetta? >> i would agree with that. >> reporter: dennis blair in his annual threat assessment said individual attackers are becoming harder to identify and stop. republicans on the panel used the hearing to accuse the obama administration of putting the rights of suspected terrorists ahead of the nation's security. they pointed to the administration's decision to try suspected terrorists in civilian court. sources say one s

. >> larry: steven, i imagine you disagree?tely, i always -- usually disagree with john. john knows that. did anybody grasp the idea, just the idea, that maybe, just maybe, he was uncomfortable because he had to speak somewhat truthfully about something for the first time in his life? this is not a guy that's accustomed to making himself available to some folks, to revealing himself to folks. this was a guy that was uncomfortable, had to read a statement. it's your life, why do you have to read a statement? >> this is why you read a statement. because you get up in front of the world, you want to make sure, it's the same statement that was on his website. you want to make sure the words you felt come out, and nobody can sit around and say he left something out, he should have said this. he was speaking from the heart. i believe he wrote the things he said. >> you believe -- you can't tell. >> you believe he doesn't. >> exactly. >> how can you not tell? >> can't tell. we don't know for sure. i'm telling you -- >> you know him? y

we'll talk to annette insdorf of columbia university, stephanie zacharek of salon.com, dana stevens a film critic for slate.com and tony scott, film critic of the "new york times" and co-host of the television program "at the movies." >> i think it's between sandra bullock, a hollywood insider who never received the kind of acclaim being showered on her with "the blind side." between the two of them. i think meryl streep is always such a camilleian. by the way, the past couple years, the oscar has gone to attractive women in deglamorized roles like halle barre for "monsters ball" and kate winslet in "the reader." so the fact that meryl streep is made to look much dowdier than she is hashgs that may help her win. >> rose: >> with catherine bigelow, she takes a lot of care with looking at what's in that frame. you always know where one character is in relation to another. whatever there's something happening, whatever there's movement. she's very attune to that. that's one thing that i kind of never hear mentioned is... it's not just wow, a really good movie made by a woman it's the fac

host: steven mufson taking your phone calls about china and the world economy.out their country's enormous spending. i asked them, what would happen if the dollar would collapse? what would leadership in china do? they said two options that would be provided to america. the first option would be america must pay the debt using gold, or the chinese government would essentially take all the factories and hold them in payment. if the u.s. does not change, we will be finished as a nation. we are on the verge of becoming a third world country. if we do not change, we will be finished. host: comments on china and debt? guest: of course, china plays an important role in financing the world deficit. that is important to us when we are trying to jump-start the economy through deficit spending. whether or not china would do something to undermine our ability to finance those deficits is something people speculate about. given that they hold so much debt, it is unlikely that they would do something that would undermine their own interests. you see them trying to diversify
