there was an earthquake in jamaica, and president theodore roosevelt dispatched ships with doctors and nurses onboard to jamaica. the governor of jamaica was a bit of an idiot didn't like the u.s. interference, but nevertheless, we provided very quick medical assistance and needed supplies. guantanamo is serving that function even as we speak. one of the first ships to arrive in haiti after the earthquake, i read in the "new york times" this morning, was a military ship, coast guard cutter, that was base at guantÁnamo. i also understand that a number of people who have been rescued who were injured in the earthquake, including the spanish ambassador to haiti, have been taken to guantanamo for medical attention. so this is something that i think, if and when, relations between the united states and cuba become much more amicable, or relations are restored, i would like to see this to be considered as a way in which guantanamo could be used. because earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, this is a very busy seismic area, the caribbean. there are disasters that occur throughout the region almos

wrister coming and shouldered away by theodore. craig: i love the way theodore pushed out there. joe: bombs away and stopped by theodore and he covers that. handled by st. louis. all of the way to point position. goal line extended and bumps it back and st. louis to the front and no lightning has scored three in a game against washington. craig: there's a goalie clinic on this power play. joe: paul szczechura on the half. power playtime da windalling. foster for st. louis. tried to deliver it back. steckel was in his way. schultz will springle it out. craig: all steckel. marty st. louis and a back hand pass read by the 4th guy with the caps defender. joe: hedman and gliding away and gordon was on top of him. it is beneath the fallen rookie long enough for a whistle. craig: headmon touched the center. he is a great rig that can jet up the ice. he scored a beautiful goal and went end to end against the buffalo team and i mean into enfor a young guy like that, it shows you an upside of the back line for tampa bay for many years to come. joe: number two in the 2009 draft behind john

again, theodore turned the rebound into the corner. bruce boudreau says when theodore is on, rebound control is at the max. nice catch by fan in the stands that. one was practically ear high. >> craig: yeah, getting a big cheer there. he is. beer in one hand. puck in the other. pretty impressive move. here is the deflection. they work it. streit the slap shot. that's a good blocker save. notice taveras and company could not get to the front. they too trying the team pass against the caps with their power play. >> joe: jose theodore excellent numbers in his career against new york. trying to backstop another washington win over the islanders this evening with the nhl on comcast sportsnet. >> craig: yeah, the 15 wins, third active among goalies in the nhl. marty well ahead of him h he has 43 wins against this islander team. >> joe: schremp scanning the defense. back for schremp. too hot to hand. alexander semin and brooks laich going the other way. alexander semin realizing he had no numbers advantage pulled up. schremp makes the steal.

as the wise of famous men, that is, theodore weld, the great or tore of abolition, jefferson davis, the first and only president of the confederacy, and ulysses s. grant. as the wives of these famous men, they were situated in that ill defined place between the powerful and the anonymous. they were brought close to the seats of power and prestige through their marriages, but they had no authority because of their gender. their intimate relationships, however, give them a unique perspective on the decisions and events that did change their world. and their marriages gave them intimate knowledge of the men who made the decisions that shaped those events. in their privileged yet restricted lives, they have much to tell us about the era, if we listen to their voices and we recover their stories. as individuals, these three women differed greatly in personality, character, temperment and intellect. the winds of change that were within their lifetimes, carried them down quite different paths, yet the paths they chose and the paths their husbands chose for them, illustrate both the limitations

yes, jose theodore certainly kept his team in it. this game. 15 minutes it took for the caps to register a shot on net. jose theodore was incredible as i said. he bailed out his team on a number of occasions. the capitals mustered up just three shots on net by the time that first period ended. they looked out of sync for much of the game but when they finally woke up they were definitely rewarded for their effort. jose theodore vintage on this night. >> that's probably the best i've seen him. you know, i mean i'm watching him going this is mr. how he was when he won in montreal that year, because without him, i mean it could very well have been 6-0 at the end of the 1st period. >> i felt pretty good tonight. thank you. thanks. they got two scoring chances right off the bat and i made those two saves. i just knew that tonight was going to be a tough night to score. the guy defensively on the penalty kill did a great job and it was a huge win. >> reporter: the fans went nuts for j.t. tonight. a couple notes from this game. matt bradley

jose theodore between the pipes for the red, white and also blue. jose has been not playing recently. he's having a big night tonight for the csps. caps, caps, ca

his name is theodore may. now, ann, 'm going to ask you about wh theodore told me about his jobecause i'interested in yo response. he said he this the future of journalism is going to revol arnd what he described as, "leaner, meaner, morversatile types of journists. the kind who will be able to repo, wre, blog, photograph, shoot vio, edit video, and promote his orer own work through social networking sites," because th's what he's doing. >> true. >>an we do that and still... >> i'm doinit. i feel like we're alreadyoing it. i mean, i'm shooting slls now, and i'm nobad. and i blog, although i hate that rd. i-- >> you have a twitr account?unt? >> i havhalf a million followers. and, toe, that's a two-way nepaper. you know, we have, what, or 5 million ewers on the "today" show, about or 5 million on "datele," about 7 million on ightly." but now i still wan towitter because there's ories that i can't get those mainstreamews broadcasts, and there's still stories can't--information i can't t in. so i put a lot of that

theodore could be back in net tomorrow night against the panthers he practiced earlier today. back to how hot this caps team is, there is no team in the nhl with a better offence. they are scoring almost 4 goals a game clip, best average in the league, plus 61 goals also tops. of the 15 games they scored 5 or more goals, 7 of them have come in this month alone and one of the reasons for the offensive explosion the play of semen. >> he goes about his business but you don't see a lot of emotion. he scores that goal and does the ovechkin leap and then gives you a pump. watch here what he does. see that is the sort of thing you are starting to see now the life of the team has even trickled down. i don't want to say he was dour, sour but never publicly emotional you never looked at him like obi. >> old school. >> right. >> very stoic. >> when you see guys like that come out and embrace the environment it gives you the answer what you are talking about where this team is. >> now earlier on washington post live will the caps go for their 9th straight win as panthers come to town. goo

abraham lincoln did great things, greater than anything done by theodore roosevelt or franklin delano roosevelt. he freed the slaves and saved the union. and because he feeds the union he was able to free the slaves. beyond this however, our extraordinary interest in him and his team for him has to do with what he said and how he said it. and much of this had to do with the union, what it was and why it was worth the saving. he saved it by fighting and winning the war of course. but his initial step in this was the decision to go to war, not a popular decision and certainly not an easy one. his predecessor, the incompetent james buchanan, believed that the state had no right to succeed from the union but there was nothing he could do about it if they did. that, by the time lincoln took office, seven southern states have succeeded and nothing had been done about it. led by south carolina, they claim to be doing only what they and the other side done in 1776. to oppose them might bring on the war and buchanan had no stomach for this. lincoln knew that the time had come when the only way

it means they will lean on michal neuvirth and jose theodore. tonight neuvirth performed?> the way he's been play and this team is playing with a lot of confidence in front of him and the way the schedule is coming up here, it's going to be interesting to see what the coach does as far as goaltenders are concerned. this will be the 7th of the last games he start and he was start. on the couple that beat him, he had nothing to do on it. he goes to 500. the team is playing with a lot of confidence. it's going to be tough for theo to get in. >> i have a quick question. what do you think having the three goalies. how hard is for the defense pan to adapt to the goaltending styles? >> i don't think it's that hard. they have a great communication factor. you're always chitchat width goalie. they all play a different style. neuvirth gets out of the note stop the pucks and theo sits back and reads the play. that's the type of communication they may have to work o. i think they are comfortable with all three. >> i thought jose handled it a bit and the others are growing into that. >

theodore roosevelt or steve jobs tend to like kansas memos that get to the heart of the matter and these massive power.presentation this and the process that other people use. people who have intuitive thinkers tend to be very good at adapting to change with innovative solutions. there are quite a few of these people. they are at the lower level of the officer corps. why are there not as many higher of. a lot has to do with the fact that people with higher ranks are in a judging category. people think like they do. people need to spend a lot of time and effort trying to bring up and cultivate more of those intuitive thinking types. this is at the heart of one of the most important structures in the military today over the future of the officer corps. general stanley petronis and general casey very much understands we have seen them talking a lot about the leadership. general david petraeus in the promotion board. they were not given a fair shake to the more intuitive thinking types. with those heavyweights behind you you would think they would be fixed. there they large constituency in t

starting with theodore roosevelt, a progressive. notice he wasn't referring to the g.o.p.re, because they weren't invited to this. even though there are progressives in the g.o.p. they can't stop it. the g.o.p. can all vote no, but they can't stop it. the struggle has been within the democratic party. the traditional democrat and the radical uber progressives. how did they bring the democrats together with the democrats? how did they do it? well, it's easy, toal the things we learned in the early 20th century. like hillary clinton said. first, there were the bribes. >> a deal has been cut in senator reid's office as the deal was cut with the pharmaceutical companies and the deal was cut with the ama and the deal was cut with the hospital association. >> i don't know what the deal was, but we'll find out what the deal was, just like the deals were cut with -- >> tell the senator what the deal was. >> full of lobbyilobbyists. i can't walk down the hallway -- >> does the senator want to hear the deal? >> if he keeps interrupting, he's violating the rules of the senatism thoug

>> we, you know, theodore roosevelt once said fear god and take your own part.op depending on surrogates. we stop depending on pakistan. we stop depending on yemen and use our own strong right arm. there is no clause in the constitution that says president obama can delegate the defense of america to a yemeni dictator. >> before we leave this morning i have to ask you finally about the cia deaths this week. you, of course, spent 20 years at the cia and you know what a great loss this is for the agency. how does this affect both morale and strategy? as the agency expands its role. >> i think it hurts morale to a certain extent, naturally, because of the deaths, but it hurts morale even more because one of the officers who got killed had arranged an operation in 1998 that would have killed or captured osama bin laden and mr. brennan was instrumental in preventing that operation from occurring. instead he said the americans should trust the saudis to take care of bin laden. so it's a painful -- it's a painful death, but more importantly it's a death that didn't nee

all the buzz at practice this morning was about theodore.bruce boudreau only saying he was day to day. we asked him is it an upper body injury or lower body injury? he stayed right away from it, just said day to day. we did see brandon hullcy who was called up from the hershey bears. he has an impressive record with the bears this season, but as bruce boudreau told us this morning he will be cheering from the bench backing up michael norvert tonight. you know, just even looking forward to sitting on the bench, it's still with the goal tending. varlamov did skate today for the fest time in over a week. he took some shots, as well, which was nice to see, and he seemed to be moving around quite well, so all signs point to him making a turn at some point, but i would not expect simeon varlamov to be dressing for russia at the upcoming olympics. let's bring in allen may. i watch to talk about alex semin. what a run this kid has been on. 19 points in the last 11 games. what do you attribute that to? is it the juggling of the lines that bruce has d

fought against the distinctive corrupting potential of corporate electioneering since the days of theodore roosevelt. it is a strange time to repudiate that common sense. while american democracy is imperfect," justice stevens concludes, "few outside the majority of the court would have thought that its flaws included a dearth of corporate money in politics." i thank the chairman. i yield the floor. i note the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: quorum call: mr. sessions: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from ama. mr. sessions: i would ask that the quorum call be dispensed with. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. sessions: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from alabama. mr. sessions: a number of things of importance have happened with regard to our financial condition over a period of years. i actually this week the president in his state of the union made some reference to it. the seriousness of our financial condition. i think his comments were far too weak and insufficiently advise the america

you know, theodor herzl wrote the book the jewish state and is considered the father of modern zionism but there were people before him, who was a? also, if a jewish life in europe was so terrible why did it take so long for there to be a martyr state of israel? why did it take all those years for it to happen? and what is sort of the existence of israel mean and how has it changed, what it means to be jewish everywhere? and i very much wanted to tell this to individual characters, people, but i thought were important at different individual errors. and i really saw it as kind of a painting that if you, you see of those paintings were when you get right up close it looks like there's all these little individual pictures, but when you step back you realize all the individual pictures together make one big picture. that sort of how i saw my book and it's sort of how icy jewish history. and what i was trying to do. something i was very interested in were false messiahs from the middle ages, because to me this group of people that every generation in the middle ages in europe rose up and s

jose theodore making a huge save. shootout. that's right. >> first career shutout goal.aps tomorrow all the way back to win it 5-4. >> 5-4 your final. alex ovechkin with his league leading 28 goal of the season. >> we will have bruce boudreau coming up later at 11:00 p.m. dc united goaltender troy perkins is returning to the black and red but he will not come without a price. united is sending fred its first round pick in tomorrow's super draft so the team can switch places in the allocation order. that will allow united to acquire him. he was named the league's goal keeper of the year with united in 2006. >>> american footballs. concussions in the forefront in the nfl. hitting close to home a couple months ago when clinton portis suffered what amounted to a season ending concussion. jill sorenson joins us with more on this ever growing issue. >> as we showed you in part 1 of our series on concussions in the nfl, due to the lack of concussion education the league has begun to respond to the need for more awareness and when it comes to more awareness the nfl p.a.'s brain

'as we bring in our analysts, down at the other end jose theodore is getting the nod. i was surprised at practice when i was talking to michael asking him consequence imes this game. he said you may want to ask somebody else because i don't think i'm getting the call tonight. does it surprise you -- surprise you that bruce has gone back to jose? >> no, not at all. you can't let him rot on the bench. he has had a great career against ottawa. to me, it's no surprise at all. i expect a very big game out of him. >> carl has been sent -- karl alzner has been sent back down to the hershey bears. caps getting defensive help. brian pothier out with a rib injury out for 11 games a former fwaw senator. what do you like about brian's game? >> direct passes in his own end. they have guys wrapping the puck around all the time. he can make a direct pass up the wall and doesn't depend on wrapping the puck. i like the way he moves the puck. i love the way he skates. when he joins the play, he's a lot better player and helps the team out a lot more when he's involved in the offensive a

jose theodore is disappointed he doesn't get to play not to mention one of his former teams. >> neurithas been playing well. someone has to get a win. that's the most important thing. >> reporter: we will enjoy your postgame comments as always. >> thank you. >> there's one lineup change. tomas fleischmann will play center and likely on a line. i understand they asked him to play the role of center? if we put a c. would it stand for captain or canadien. >> canadien. >> i thought you meant piuma. that's another discussion. >> you get me every time. >> don't call me that other c. word [ laughter ] >> what are they drinking up in canada. >>> to find the csn plus channel go to csnwashington.com and enter the key word plus. >>> coming up on geico sportsnite, d.c. united, by the way, she meant cougar. >>> we'll introduce you to the new head coach in the black and red. who's hot and who's cold is presented by cropp metcalfe. and what did she say? she said whatever. >>> welcome back. the season is over and a new head coach is on the way. it's the perfect time for the redskins to tell us how they

theodore randolph was the governor of new jersey. i do not know much about gov. randolph. i do not know where his portrait hangs. i suspect were mine will be soon, but members of the legislature, we stood up, and we did the right thing. last summer we began demolition of the oliver street school. [applause] this year we will break ground on a new building, and in september of 2012 students will begin in a 21st century school. this is not the exception. this is the rule. the fda took another dilapidated 19th century facilitate and turned it into a new school. these are not just obstructions. they are also hope for the lives of our kids. these are part of another -- a larger new jersey story. new jersey students outperform the rest of the nation in reading, writing, and moutath. [applause] they graduate and attend colleges at rates that exceed nearly every other state in the nation, and while others have lower standards, are lowering graduation -- while other states are lowering standards, we are raising them and consider education to be a cornerstone of my legacy as governo

you have not had a populist in the republican party since theodore roosevelt. we're not being fooled by senator cheesecake. guest: senator cheesecake -- [laughter] callerguest: he defined her camn by what he does not like about it or which is not doing right. it is an indicator of the enthusiasm gap. i would love your views on this -- how many women candidates have had problems running for either governor or senator in massachusetts. either republicans or democrats. guest: it is interesting. women face any challenge. on the when and if you have to be tough enough, and on the other compassionate enough. how you strike the balance, speaking with and having worked with a number of women candidates -- guest: particularly in a blue- collar state. guest: absolutely. the cannot speak to how she may have been casting herself early, but how you appeal to blue- collar workers who want to know you'll be tough enough on issues they care about, but at the same time women and others want to know if you will understand, have the compassion with social issues. host: mary has t

president theodore roosevelt once said, of all the questions that can come before this nation short of the actual preservation of this existed in a great war there is none which compares in importance with the great central task of leaving this land even a better land for our descendents that it was for us. this week we celebrate the foresight of so many californians to preserve this ma jetic landscape for future generations to come. i urge all members to support this resolution. thank you. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from washington is recognized. mr. hastings: madam speaker, i require if the gentlelady from the virgin islands has any more speakers? mrs. christensen: i have no more speakers. mr. hastings: i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentlewoman from the virgin islands is recognized. mrs. christensen: i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: all timetime being yielded back, the question is will the house suspend the rules and pass house resolution 1020. those in favo

congressman lacy was a republican from iowa who was one of theodore roosevelt's closest allies in thecongress in the great days of the conservation president. and one of the pieces of legislation that he sponsored was a law that enabled federal agents to prosecute those who took animals in violation of state laws, because there was a raging trade in illegally taken game animals. and that statute had been in place, used occasionally by federal fish and wildlife agents for nearly a century when, in 2008, congress revised it, extending it to cover trees and to cover trees taken illegally in the country of origin. and we said, watch for prosecution under the statute of the first case of the would've been brought into the united states in violation of the statute, and talk a little bit about the very interesting network of citizen enforcement, some of our analytical expertise and the justice department. and a few months ago, federal agents armed with a search warrant raided the premises of a very surprising first case gibson guitar, a company that prided itself in trying to use good wood,

backed up by jose theodore. as they meet the islanders in blue, this face-off presented by papa john's. the on-ice officials once get rolling, the officials and the linesmen coming east along with brian mock as we are under way. karl alzner teamed one shaone morrisonn and back on bruce boudreau's blue line. he gives brooks laich the start with tomas fleischmann and alexander semin. semin fresh from a four-point fehr for mance in that win over phoenix on the weekend. >> craig: the key for these two teams is who is going to set the team. the islanders like to play an up beat game. they did not in their last game which is a loss to the devils. >> joe: a post up, fires. theodore with a smart-looking stop 35 seconds into the contest. >> craig: he's one of their big gunners. he's a gunner who will really rip it. turn aover by the caps in their own zone. okposo he can just fly. he's op a great run. in the month of january, only anderson has a better win percentage there. you see why. solid positionally for theodore in
