it is not unimpressive.logist. >> not a cos moatologist. >> stephen:moatologist.>> stepho ask you for a manny-pedy. the new book is called, "a universe from nothing: why there is something rather than nothing." a book about the ultimate question. >> uh-huh. >> stephen: okay, doctor, sweep away thousands of years of mystery and a awe at creation tt let the greet minds in civilizations all over the world to lead to one point-- a single divine loving creator. destroy it. why is there something instead of nothing? >> it's really easy, because nothing is unstable. in fact, there's no evidence for anyidatey. everything we know about the laws of physics, which are remarkable and have changed everything about the way we think about the universe what, nothing is and what something is-- this table here is mostly empty space. >> stephen: this table cost me $500. you telling me i got ripped off? ( laughter ) let's go back, go back a second, okay. nothing is unstable. what do you mean that nothing is unstable. nothing is

i have visited and unimpressed. i appreciated the team being very open to listening to some of the concerns i raised about the petition and the moment concerns. i know they do not actually worry as much. i think they made a case that there will not be this kind of competition for students that i am concerned about. i hope there is room enough and options enough for everybody. at the end of the day, there was not a reason to vote against the petition. the school is clearly working for a lot of kids. the icing on the cake was meeting ashley, who is going to graduate from my alma mater in three years. class of 1998, class of 2015. that was special for me. i am happy to support the petition. commissioner wynns: i will not be supporting this chart to this evening. i have to say that i am disappointed in the recommendation from the staff, because it does not have any analysis of the high school enrollment projections. a few years ago, in another high school charger -- san francisco has a disproportionate number of high-sc

. >> reporter: rate payers were unimpressed and pepco was further embarrassed today when regional administrator thomas graham flubbed twice. >> it's not reasonable for a person to be upset at all when they are without power for a week. >> what? >> reporter: graham who clearly misspoke ended up asking county council members for a mulligan, the golf term for a do-over. he was granted one, but that's about the only slack that pepco got cut today. scott broom, 9 news now. >> now you're about to see a confrontation caught on tape as 9 want to know and tries to get some answers. here's investigative reporter russ ptacek with the maryland official who okayed that order allowing pepco and bge to bill you even while your power is out the first day. >> reporter: are you going to change this? >> we will be glad to look at it. >> reporter: what are you going to do? >> we'll be glad to look at it. >> reporter: but you won't commit? >> i can't possibly commit during the course of an interview. >> reporter: but do you understand people are getting upset? >> eye am not going to say any -- i am not going to say

both democratic and republican lawmakers, however, remain unimpressed, to say the least. >> i can't wait to stay up all night to see as much as possible of them. we take such pride in them. they worked so hard. they represent the very best in there. so excellent. it's all so beautiful. and they should be wearing uniforms that are made in there. >> we did a little research and looked on team usa's website to see where most merchandise is manufactured. nearly three-quarters of all items including clothing, jewelry and accessories is imported. and less than 9% of all the items sold on the site specify they're actually made in the usa. thinking issue is not going away any time soon. find out what the people at ralph lauren are saying. their exclusive answer to the backlash is coming up on "nbc nightly news" with brian williams. >>> this preparation for the olympics, london's airspace will be under tight restrictions starting at midnight tonight. all aircraft will have to adhere to strict new regulations when flying across much of southeast england, including a ban on flying over central lond

johnson and others like that, very quickly show themselves to be contentious, unimpressed by the president himself, really not entirely in view with the notion of t proper relation of a general in a civil democracy, as being subordinate to the civil authority. davis will have trouble with a lot of other commanders throughout the war. this is one of the best known things about his presidency. >> it should be noted that robert e. lee's first field command was a failure in west virginia, which was in the process of becoming west virginia. in the summer and early fall of 1861. so much so that the richmond newspapers started calling him granny lee. it wouldn't be entirely clear to davis in 1861 that lee was going to emerge as the top field commander for the confederate army. >> he had been an engineer as well. he was sent to south carolina to oversee the construction, he does exactly that and requires the nickname spades lee. >> getting back to the older veterans who have eventually to move on for the emergence of the younger folks let's talk to whom you alluded jim a moment ago, a veteran of n

so it is held to the best markets now with you see they all declining along his team of all the unimpressed by the first installment of ben bernanke is testimony to the u.s. congress that's following days of build out where investors had been trying to peg but the reason for using a more concrete signal that the stimulus was on its way a much can be said for the european markets as well where the all the pent up. in the run up to solve today was really with the unwound we did have the ducks down as well but it's just managed to pull it off and supposed to be in the last sort of five minutes or so if we get into the year or them we'll also see that it's taken a nosedive in response to that i want solid concrete details as to what ben bernanke is going to be doing to the economy in order to give it a kick i think want to see fifteen after the trade is private. the ruble finished up the trading session harakah the us dollar on the year right. as exactly how they ended up the day session with industrial production going every three percent for the first year i'll have a look at the stocks and t

the markets unimpressed by the market loose bing overnight. the day's low the down was down 91 points. energy and financials have been the days laggards, and the consumer digressionaries ha-- a the dollar jumps 1.4% against the currencies making it the largest gain for the dollar in seven months. it was because so many other nations are a bigger mess than the u.s. economy is right now. we have at least one analyst that says that can change in a hurry, right? >> yes, exactly. he was telling "cnbc squawk box" that it could change. >> if mr. geithner sent $500 billion to support the european union, he would not be doing as good of a job as he is right now. the day europe does manage to get some order back in place, you will see the dollar fall 20 to 30%. >> the way you're describing it doesn't sound like that day is close at hand. >> i believe it's in the next two years. >> if europe does right it's ship, could it sink ours? let's ask michael who says our interest rates will soar and jeremy who says that's an extreme view. michael, that would be

steve more is unimpressed with either of us. steve, you're not buying this. >> no, i'm not. i listen to that ad and think it sounds like president obama is saying mission accomplished on the economy when you have a very fragile recovery, if it is a recovery. the numbers came out on construction and manufacturing which were lousy. the banking sector which you talked about looks feeble. it's hard to point to anything that's positive about the economy. for the president to run these ads saying -- it's hard to square with the way americans feel about jobs and incomes. >> neil: the unfortunate thing is, for me pitching fitness, people saw me in a gym, which raised eyebrows right away with the crowd doing the analogy. then i thought of the president. just the news today that gm wants to outsource jobs in china, expand operations abroad. you and i would endorse and support that effort to make strong the mother ship that is the corporation. whether rescued or not. but for the president to say this is doesn't happen under his watch, it just happened today. >> right. look, here's the

the nba to me is so unimpressive right now. >> have you seen derrick rhodes play? >> that was almost a spasm. >> i don't know what i just said. >> i like college basketball, but the nba is just -- it has lost it. >> that's too bad that -- too bad. we aren't talking about that. >> totally changing the subject. >> isn't there a fine line between free speech and what could be embarrassing to the league. i guess this is embarrassing to the league. he makes they will all look like dumb heads. >> i'm not sure the nba needs to get involved. the only one who looks like a dumb head is himself. why get involved? your ego is so big you feel you have to respond? just ignore them. >> that's hard when you are on twitter. it takes one person to get new your soft spot. >> i am on twitter the same. i have one-10 of your followers. but you ignore the idiots. >> you may have less than one-tenth. you don't have many at all. i on the other hand have a lot. i lose count. do you think the nba cared the fans were offended or they wanted to look good to activists ? >> they said, look, this

the general ship had been unimpressive. as soon as montgomery had won the battle, largely through very good preparation rather than tactical brilliance, he did become a hero. they were desperate for that sort of hero at the time. montgomery became almost fatuous in the way that he was carried away by his self-image at that particular time. >> you have a little bit of a scene where you compare montgomery with our general clark. i did not know montgomery was that short. >> yes. >> and clark was that tall. >> yes. >> what was their relationship? >> one of jealousy. his own staff were dubious about this obsession. they refer to the way that he made sure his imperial profile was photographed by the right side. the referred to him as marcus aurelius clark, and he was intensely distrustful of montgomery. montgomery then went back for the preparations for d-day. clark became more obsessed. he printed in his own memoirs that he threatened that if the british got there first, he would actually fire on them. this is one of the few cas

the british were unimpressed. here's the british prime minister david cam ron. >> we are holding an olympic games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities anywhere in the world. of course, it's easier if you hold an olympic games in the middle of nowhere. >> the middle of nowhere. romney tried to put things right, particularly since mr. cameron had gone out of his way to host the presidential candidate. romney began his long and winding walk back. >> i also applaud the work of the organizing committee in bringing the olympic experience right into the heart of london. >> but that was not nearly enough for the british press, so romney added this. >> we talked about the great progress that has been made in organizing the games. my experience as an olympic organizer is that there are always a few very small things that end up going not quite right in the first day or so. those get ironed out, then when the games themselves begin and the athletes take over, all the mistakes that the organizing committee, and

call rupert murdoch unimpressed with the campaign team thus far.ogul took to the twitterverse with his criticisms tweeting mitt romney last week -- which we assume tough obama professionals will be hard to beat unless he drops old friends and hires real pros. doubtful. new jersey governor chris christie not holding back during a question and answer session with reporters after a discussion over collapsed water mains goes a little off topic. >> did i say on topic? are you stupid? on topic. on topic. next question. good. thank you. thank you all very much and i'm sorry for the idiot over there. take care. >> oh, it's a big job for the george w. bush presidential center dallasnews.com reporting that workers have the tedious task of sorting and archiving 200 million e-mails. the e-mails are in a secure location. one with the space to hold the 600 million printed pages of material. >>> loretta sanchez and her staffers mix a little fun with their workday throwing together a spoof of the harvard baseball team's "call me maybe" parody with one of their own

but now, some of her neighbors are unimpressed with her famous voice. they want police to do something about it. lama hasan has been following this for us. >> reporter: the "britain's got talent" star once dreamed the dream. but did she ever dream that voice would be called a nightmare? just ask her neighbor, theresa miller, who tells "the daily mail," we would hear the shouting and sometimes singing before she became famous. but since she got successful, it's become worse. she's so loud, you can't hear the tele. it's unbearable. they say after belting out tunes, boyle has sent them running to their local council screaming. complaining of noise pollution. her tones are clearly no music to her neighbors' ears. boyle's rep tells abc news, she and her neighbors have been feuding over a decade. fighting over her success. the two simply don't like each other. so, perhaps there's a little jealousy. a little neighborhood frakous. the other neighbor maybe wanted revenge, because it all started when the star complained about noise coming from their house. >> i t

and yet, we're now so jaded by everything, so unimpressed by anything we see that even that moment, event thou forsaken me?" if you were to upload that to youtube and scroll down into the comments, i promise you, the only thing you would read would be "this su-u-u-cks." "this is s-o-o-o g-a-ay." now, look, look, i think we're all aware that joke has split the room. (laughter) largely between those people going to heaven and the rest of us. so, all right. okay, point taken. let's discuss a lighter subject now-- race. (laughter) now, where-- where are we in terms of race relations? that's a difficult question to answer, isn't it? everyone has their own idea. yet something happened to me, recently, which i think pinpoints exactly where we are. i was in d.c., and i was walking back to my hotel with two of my friends who both happen to be african-american, and i am entirely supportive of that choice. i think it's great. i've told them that. i think it's great. i think he's very brave. and they should just keep-- keep on keeping on. that's what i-- personally, i think. and then the front of th
