yes, still huge, but remember, we were talking about a search area originally bigger than the continental united states. and they have picked up new signals that they say could be from the plane's black boxes. it had been two days, as you know where they said look, we're feeling worse about this and worse about this. we haven't reacquired the signal. now they have two more times. could this be it? the question is time is running out. it is day 34 of the search. the batteries in the black boxes are fade mortgage as each day passes. it's pretty incredible if in fact they are still working at this point. the australian ship ocean shield i was just showing you first picked up two sets of underwater pings on saturday, and now reacquired the signals twice australia time tuesday. all four signals detected within 17 miles of each other on the surface that could mean a lot of things when it gets to under the water. but on the surface. michael holmes is in perth tonight for us. michael, how close do they think they are to finding the plane? >> well, you know, erin, it's interesting listening to the man wh

upon unsettling the continental land mass of america, the united states tried to extend its control to the blue water adjacent the gulf of mexico and the caribbean. it is not true the western hemisphere is divided between north and south america but north and south of the amazon jungle because that is in terms of where people live in those countries around the caribbean. once the united states got dominance, it got strategic control of the hemisphere. that allowed it to affect the balance of power and that was the story of the 20th century. the monroe doctrine was not about taking up the europeans. they had already left. it was about keeping them out while cooperating with britain over the slave trade, combating the slave trade and at the same time moving closer to europe and every other spear once the caribbean was settled. >> host: you even say specifically at of the caribbean that is what it was about. >> the chinese say you americans come from half a world away. that makes you hegemonic but we're just spreading our benevolence with our continental control into the blue national soi

statement if not corralled and dealt with could have a far more reaching impact than in the continental united you have aggressive markets like south america, asia and obviously the hispanic market right here in the united states, the nba not long ago released a statement indicating nearly 20% of the endemic nba fan base is his pampg. wh hispanic. san antonio and other markets, over 50% regular attendees and viewers are hispanic speaking or spanish fans. it's much broader, talk about the brand impact of this action, this is a much greater question of right and wrong. 23 you were to monetize the alleged indiscretion, this is going to have a global ripple effect. >> also gets much bigger than ball, right? this is about how we treat race and what level of accountability is. that's what i want to ask you about now, sean. because you hear ugly terms. this is just a reflection of the plantation meant a lot that exists in ownerships sounds harsh and condemn in aer to. the reason they're judging on sterling, don't judge him they knew things about this guy. they knew how he felt about what you should p

as the former general of the continental army, the former president of the united states, did the idea of distilling whisky give him pause? >> it did. i think for him, he was nervous about what sort of message it might project, what kind of an element it might attract. but ultimately i think he satisfied himself to the fact that he could control that but mainly that he could make a lot of money doing that. >> reporter: seven years ago they rebuilt it exactly where it stood and they make whisky the same way they did back then. >> now i'm going to take the water. >> right. >> and put the water into the barrel. >> reporter: it is hard work. they put rye and malt and yeast into barrels and let it ferment for three days, then they carry the mash over to the stills and heat the vapor to turn it eventually into whisky. >> some of it comes out as water and some of it comes out in the back as alcohol. we'll actually distill it twice, we test it to make sure what proof we have got. >> reporter: there is a famous if unconfirmed story of him visiting a fishing club in philadelphia. >> he was invit

upon subtle in the continental tempers of landmass of north america, the united states try to extendhis control to the bluewater, adjacent to the landmass coming into greater caribbean, gulf of mexico and caribbean. it's not true that the america scum of the western hemisphere is divided between north and south america. it's actually divided between south of the amazonian jungle because venezuela, colombia, in terms of where people live in those families. was the united states that dominance over the caribbean, it essentially got control of the hemisphere and that allowed us to effect the balance of power and the other hemisphere now is the story of the 20th century. the monroe doctrine was not about taking out the europeans. the europeans had heard it last. it was about keeping the novel at the same time cooperating with britain over the slave trade, combating the slave trade in at the same kind of thing to europe in every other sphere was creepy and was saddled. >> you write about keeping them specifically under the caribbean's. >> with the cheney say to me as you americans come fr

united states did to the caribbean in the 19th and early 20th century. dilute american influence in western asia so that china could expand its continental land mass into thet blue waters. the south china sea has the potential to make china into a great military power in the way the caribbean gave the united states domination of the western hemisphere. >> then you have the east china seas which is the area between china and japan, basically. >> yes. >> to me this is the most dangerous because it involves two very big, rich countries, the second and third largest economies in the world. and countries with huge defense budgets. we saw one version of what could happen. a ship captain takes his boat into these waters. play out for us what you think could happen. >> the east china sea is a more acute problem for the united states because frankly speaking, the united states will probably not go to the war to defend the philippines. it's a poor country but not a serious one like japan is. japan is a serious ally for the united states and upholding japanese nationalism could be as much of a challenge for the united states in the future as chinese nationalism. don'
