30 people in according to the article by george packer, um, and, um, but he has, ah, put himself directly into the a.i.d. bureaucracy, and of course the, the state department bureaucracy. it's a tribute to his, um, to the force of his personality that he has been able to accomplish that. there may be some people who wish that he wasn't playing quite such a big role, but there doesn't seem to be much chance that they're going to be able to do anything about it. >> and, ah, that illustrates the point that special envoys also operate in a variety of different ways in different situations and presidents often choose them for different situations because of their methods of, of conducting their diplomacy. let's hear one more time from our other experts. >> any time you use an envoy, it will raise a challenge of, well, for example, in the case of the middle east, ah, what everyone is doing on the middle east peace process, how is it connected with the economic development issues? >> you can't solve afghanistan unless you solve, ah, pakistan as well, for example. and, i think an envoy into a pla

um, so it does do that. it may not necessarily, in attacking first, but nonetheless, in showing that anybody who threatens russia, in the near abroad actually would pay for it. uh, there are issues with ukraine on uh, oil and gas all the time, and russia always threatens to turn off the pipe, and it does so once in a while. uh, there are issues with moldova, the are issues with belorussia, there are issues with a lot of neighboring countries, and i think this is the most threat that russia can present. i just don't believe that russia really has great capability to exercise, ultimately. i mean, it's easy with uh, small georgia, which i think has six million people and not entirely very well-trained army, although it was trained by the united states. but russia is also rather pragmatic, and vladimir putin, all my problems with him is a reasonable, reasonably pragmatic leader who wants, who wants to assert russia, but also does not want to do it at the expense at his western connections. i mean, in many ways,

um -- i just wanted to live in a different way. i went to france. when i came back i wanted to eat differently. i wanted to be in the world a different way. i thought if i opened a little restaurant, i could feed my friends, because they were all eating at my house and not paying. [laughter] i thought there it was. a little neighborhood space. i put it in a house. and i was naive enough to think that i could open under $10,000. we went immediately $40,000 in debt. [laughter]. >> welcome to the restaurant business. >> but i think people really helped something about the restaurant. i wasn't in it for the money. in fact, i really wasn't. thank goodness i had a guardian angel who saved me. >> what drove you? here we are 1971, many, many years later, you seem arguably, you seem more passionate than you did yesterday. didn't know you in 1971 or even myself, what was the passion, the drive, what was it about food and what is it about food that matters so much to you? >> when i went to france, i really felt like i hadn't eaten before. i grew up in new jers

>> well, um, i have not.to. and i think lorri knows them all, yes? >> right. i haven't met the parents of michael moore, but i've met stevie branch's mother and chris byers' father, yes. >> larry: do you -- give me -- we have limited time here, dennis. what's the -- without going into wide and varied tangents, your key oral argument is? >> the key oral argument is that the state of arkansas passed dna statute precisely to permit a way for people who had been wrongly convicted to overturn their convictions, even after appeal. that the dna evidence in this case -- none of it links links s to the crime. there is dna evidence that points in another direction. that each supposed building block of the state's case, each part of it has been eroded by new evidence, the notion that a knife was used in this case has been completely refuted. every component of the state's case has been eroded by the evidence and we meet the standard that if these defendants were tried today, no reasonable jury would return a conviction.

>> um... i don't know, what did you like? >> i don't know, there weren't a lot of courtroom dramas when i was a kid. la law, but was i in my 20s. >> matlock? >> no. >> now, it's going to be a, innocence and guilt, you say innocence and guilt, but it's all about will we ever find the truth? >> well that's the trick and what is the truth, ultimately and what really is truth and what's justice and all those questions kind of get explored, hopefully in a fresh, fun way. because we're not ripped from the headlines stories, we play with it in dramatic ways and have fun with it. >> both of you h had so much success in your acting careers, what's it like to sit here, hours away from a premier? what's going on through your mind? >> lunch. no, um, i don't, we were just talking about this the other day. we don't have really any control over you know, what happens to, you know what i mean? hopefully people will watch the show and hopefully they'll like it, but i don't sweat it so hard. >> i'm sweating it, not in that, i have a kind of an

um... thank you and peace be with you. there's three mike's here so i don't know if i should put this down. um... before i start, i've had the great honor to - i love to talk at schools. k through graduate school and one question i ask children in america is i ask them how many of you have talked great detail to your grandparents or elders or fore father's about world war ii or the depression or vietnam or civil rights movement, or perhaps if your parents or grandparents came from another country and settled here what it's like. only five to ten percent of the ands come up. if i asked that same question in afghanistan or pakistan or africa 90% of ands come up and i think the as great tragedy we've lost that oral tradition and a rich tradition about folklore and heritage and faith and heritage. to honor that today i'd like to share with you a little story. it's a hard cover book that came out in march of 2006. anybody have a hard cover. wave it up here. you might not want it after i say this

>> slow food is um, slow food is a way of thinking. and um, thinking about the world. and it is an international movement started by a guy named carlo petrili in rome, italy. he thought it was more effective than holding up signs and saying, don't put that in here. he sat down with all of his friends, they ate pasta and drank wine. he wented a whole other way of eating and drinking and dreamed up this idea of bringing people the ideas of sustainability and diversity. and the preservation of the cultural heritage of the world through this idea of, of flavor and [inaudible] at the table. >> he holds international conference every year? >> every 2 years. >> in italy? >> in italy. >> he has been doing that for how long, a decade or so? >> 12 years. >> and you are bringing it to the united states of america? here in the great city and county of san francisco? and your idea is to do what? and what should we expect? why should we show up at slow food nation? food demonstrations? farmers. >> victory garden. well,>> what is this conference to you? what are you expectinging to g

um, china, in effect, is replacing us as the key manufacturing center. what matters most for the united states is how china's quest for resources affects governments uh, in africa, and affects environmental protection. because, at least at the outset, china is pursuing this in a way that promotes corruption, promote environmental damage. >> i think the most likely conflicts that are going to come from china in this search for resources, are not going to be necessarily uh, conflict from the united states or any great power conflict. but i think what is happening already, that china's finding that when it deals with african countries or latin-american countries, that it faces the same problems as the european and u.s. faced in dealing with theses countries, in that many of them are unstable, many of them don't have complete control over their territory. many of them have insurgencies, and so china's efforts to say, well, we separate business from politics, it won't be tenable. they won't be able to continue acting in that way. and you can already see, in s

they have a great steak for um, under $22 which is a good deal when you get two sides and a big salad with it. it's really, you know, quite a deal. and also, the reef grill in timonium has a wonderful steak, which is under $20. so there's good places where you can get a good steak and not spend a whole lot of money. >> you also go through all the different cuts as well, correct? >> we do. we try to get people a little primer, they can be familiar with the difference between the strip, a tenderloin, delmonico steak. >> what is that? >> it's part of the strip. it's just a different name for it. but sometimes people aren't familiar with it. we were trying to give a little guide to help people. >> because you ate so much steak researching this article, do you have favorite sides to go with it. >> somebody will have steak fries or potatoes? >> i have to go back to the prime rib, which is our cover steak, they um, they have their, you know, potato skins, which they've been making that recipe since i think the mid-60s, late 60s, and it's always a great side dish to have or even as an appetiz

most of these chemicals, um, come from oil by-products, petroleum. this is true of the high end brands like cliniq ue. we know they are toxic, animal studies show they lead to certain health effects. it is okay because there is just a little bit of toxic chemical and you can't prove it causes harm. so of course, as we pointed out, none of us used this product today. here is a run down of my beauty routine, some of the things i was supposed to, 40 hormone chemicals, 17 carcinogens, 17 penetration chemicals. they draw others more deeply into the property. 16 toxins, less than 50 percent of my chemicals has been assessed by any publically accountable institutions. there are no government requirements for us to understand these chemicals. we have a lot of information about some of them. most of them have never been -- the combined mixtures of a developing teenager saying day after day year after year. there is a lot we don't know. what do know there is a tremendous amount of scientific evidence that showing low doses of chemical exposures can interfere w

um... this is a slide that, you know, if i really tortured you i would have shown a few minutesing a but this is a picture of the,g fel, model under a medium high emissions scenario. the change of the temperature at the end of the century, verses the model, historical climate, and you can see the scale. i'm looking that map here. scale is at the bottom and what you see by this is the coastal air temperature raised, by the end of the century, about 2, 2 and a half degrees celsius. but when you get to the interior of north america, this is for summer, the temperature rise is in excess of five celsius and colorado does not look very good, naturally in those terms. so, what this suggests - and more than one model shows the same kind of behavior and i'll show you : tha. but this is a transit of southern california showing you the temperature rise across this area, and you see this tremendous gradient of temperature increase as you get in land. of course, that has a profound influence - or would

americans are expected to spend an average of $66 on candy and umes, and that's up 6 -- cost umes, and that's up 6% from last year. >> hard to believe we're talking about halloween already. >> if will feel like the 4th of july, because high temperatures again will be in the 90's, and i think we'll break a few high temperatures. particularly reagan national airport. let's take a look. we have a fog product down there. the areas seen in bright yellow, those are areas estimated to be at about a mile. norget of the -- north of the beltway, estimated visibility of a half a mile. south of 70, i know it is not technically our viewing area but a lot of you watch us up there, that's a quarter mile of availability, that is estimated availability. so do jape anticipate some fog to start our day. now let's look at the almanac data. i think we'll break that, maybe tie it, but likely break it. 90 was the high yesterday. the average high temperature is p 77. the record hyatt dulles is -- the record high at dulles is 92. i think we'll break that. clouds and a few showers off to our north along the war

um... i don't think so. maybe that's an industry friendly version of safety but certainly not pedestrian friendly. also these large,c uvs have a hyphaah hyphaalty ri rate and they're dangerous to pedestrian. does it mean no injuries or no danger. this confusion of what safety really means is classic joke about this conflict between injuries and danger is if you have allah goon with man eating sharks. no one swims in it so we have no fatal this and does that mean the lagoon is safe? of course not. it's a joke but here we are. we're going to come back to what is safety and how do we get that. let's look at san francisco in context here. to some of the other cities in the region. san francisco has a lot of pedestrian injuries, more so than the other cities in the area but look at the slide and say wait a second! san francisco is a large city. so if we adjust this for injuries per capita, we still see san francisco is still showing a lot of pedestrian injuries but not as strongly, now we see that san francisco a
