but he was, um, he was, he was sort of a friendless, lonely man in many ways. and particularly as president. but i think the key to him, the key to his failure as a president were two things. sort of the combination of having great power, enormous power which he'd never had before, and you can see him exercise it after he's elected. some of these loony memos addressed to mrs. nixon from the president. [laughter] and it was very, and -- >> loving. >> coming from, he suggested that they should commission a book about the most maligned politician in american history or the great comebacks in history. and where's this coming from? [laughter] and so you can see, and you can see the side that he was sort of this come by nation of great power and great insecurity, and that's a deadly combination. a really deadly combination. and i think that's what finally brought him down. >> something that struck me, one of the things we did at the library was we started an oral history program because the library had been run privately, and the federal government had kept all of pr

it signaled it was not holding quite together. there was a fear it was holding a part.ames madison's primary political goal was unity. if you keep that in mind as we go on tonight, dolley madison's work will become understandable. the second thing i would like to say is that we know the end of the story. we know this nation will be a strong nation state with a democracy and a two-party system and a strong presence. that was none of the things the founders had intended. we look back and see that time as a time of growing pains. they did not know how this would end. madison was the perfect person to help the nation ease into what it would be. >> serving as the chief executive of the nation, he brought the real concept of how he wanted the role to be carried out. how did he approach it and how did she help him? >> he was the idea guy. he was very theoretical. he and other members of the founding generation understood unity as a concept. it was their number 1 job. how do you do it? how do you bring forth unity? what dolley madison did is take that concept and translate them

i think it was good to go in, because my life was not with ermez. it was for my own company. so we changed. we pushed. spanish rudes, perfume routes. sounds very good to my ears. i am a quite truthful person >. >> is there always going to be a controversial side of jean paul gaultier? there was a time when you were inspired by rabbis. i believe you're in new york, there were a bunch of rabbis he saw walking by the public library, you turned it into a collection. you must have known this was dramatic and would be alarming to people. >> i should say that in some way, i think i have a kind of innocence. like that is not that big part of me. when it is beautiful, i believe in it. i saw it was beautiful. i wanted to show it. for me, it was so strong, the impression. it was beautiful. and with a lot of meaning for me. it was meaning for people like a minority can come together strong and impact. at the same time, visually and spiritually. i wanted to show that beauty. after my time there, michael was to show the beauty seinfield. -- my goal was to show the beauty i felt. i should m

i was not very old. but i was aware at that age that it was a historic occasion. and i think in some elementary fashion i wanted to document it i wanted to say, ok, this is an event i was at and these are the united states pavilions -- this was whatever the pavilions were that seemed interesting. c-span: did you have a family that was interested in art or photography? >> guest: yes. we were always being taken to museums -- sort of all over. and both my mother and my grandmother were artists of some small talent. and i had an aunt who was quite a well-known painter. so it was in the family. c-span: when was the first time you actually had a job as a photographer -- photo-journalist? >> guest: well, as a photographer that would have been between -- after i had graduated from undergraduate school actually here in washington. i started out and i -- let me think what probably was the first job. i think what it was -- i was hired by a coalition of groups who had some bills coming up in congress that were to protect migrant workers, and they wanted someone to go around t

it was known that it was politically literate. we understand and it was known that the deputy prime minister would be nominated and at that time he had a shoe in. so it really damaged irish bookmakers. giving you a odd of strategic moments. as soon as i was nominated, we didn't even put money on it. [laughter] >> what i was encouraged to do, first of all, when i ring him and told him that john rogers had posted this invitation for me out of the blue, he said that it is valentine's day, come to lunch. and he said more or less, you are the constitutional lawyer. have you ever really looked at both provisions? i have to admit that i kind of knew about them, but i kind of glossed over. i never took the case that was relevant. so i went back and read and realized that this president could do a huge amount. because people had voted for you to serve to do your best for seven years. to really take this on and be the personification of the country. so this gave me a kind of peace to argue for a much more proactive presidency. it would rela

minister was bizarre was this the minister of state security simeoni match if it was scared to enter when he arrived the minister of state security someone that everyone in the country feared was too afraid to come in i would imagine he would see stallin sick in his bed and his eyes look at him and say why are you here. one of the most sinister figures of stone and in a circle turned out to be brave enough levante beriah he knew too well that all of his ministry of state security prita says and ended up in front of a firing squad he also fell out of stone in favor and was very likely to be arrested soon the supporters were also being prosecuted. very it was the one who understood the situation in the highest slums of power so he could not allow this to happen. moreover my grandfather told me that barrier had even close to it but it was him it was responsible for stalin's death barry used to say that he saved everyone from the repression by the unpredictable insane dictator . or did the. area immediately realize just how serious stunts condition was but he doctors from being called an

the most dangerous thing was the fact that there was a traits among the people close to stalin it was very and he was inexperienced and coming in to me cleverly disguised his motives and stomach trusted him that was his big mistake very long been striving for power results to all possible ways one could think of he was capable of and. it was not just beriah but every one of stalin's associates who had reason to see his demise just left molotov and i just does make a young one particularly fearful of the rest. stalin terrified of conspiracy against him decided to completely restructure his circle and at the same time to intimidate the people of his country once again. it doesn't seem yeah it doesn't all families friends colleagues hundreds of people could have been affected so now it is even how to imagine that it could really be the case i won't be when he was given those two women who don't the enemies of true people but their wives me when i will he's already signed that list and ordered them all to be shown to be stupid how could a person be so cruel or. just left molotov the man w

it was like, "whoa, that was easy and that was great.ood at this." >> it was clockwork from there. over the course of nearly three years, he took the s.a.t. over and over again, consistently scoring in the 97th percentile or higher for the students he called his clients. >> i mean, my track record speaks for itself. like, if you know somebody's so stellar at doing something so flawlessly, without one exception, it goes without saying that's a reliable service. >> were you invested at all in the score you would get? >> oh, yeah, absolutely. just like any other businessperson, like, you want to have a good track record, right? and essentially, like, my whole clientele were based on word of mouth and, like, a referral system. >> if that sounds outrageous, it's because his high scores and his client's money trumped right and wrong. at the height of his business, eshaghoff was able to charge as much as $2,500 per test. one very satisfied customer gave him a $1,100 tip. >> a lot of times i would actually--i would actually even induce a bidding

in other words, i was, i was wrong, i was proven wrong the next day, i think. when november 6th the election, i don't know. i look back and i think, gee, you know? why didn't you, you know, i had certain qualms, but i thought romney was going to win. romney thought he was going to win. romney's pollsters thought he was going to win. look, there was evidence out there. look, it was minority for sure. i mean, so many of the other poll, the big newspaper polls, and others had obama winning re-election, but you know why not? i thought, i thought romney was going to win. why not say so? >> october 8th, you said this in your twitter message. "the media pull out all the stops to reelect the president." did you really believe that? >> let me -- maybe they did not pull al the stops but certainly pulled out some of them. i like the way they covered the campaign. normally would you take a presidential campaign within the president is running for re-election, his word would be a big issue. they completely ignored it. the record. it was all about what he was doing in the ca

first there was the blindness. joe was born blind as was his sister. doctors didn't know what caused it for either of them. it cannot have been an easy thing for ether and joe sr. having blind children. having two blind kids is much harder, the sort of harder that makes for stress, for anger, for fighting. i won't lie to you, says toni, the parents fought a lot. then there was the incan december sense of little joe's mind. jo jo would pester the adult toss read allowed to them. before long he wanted them to tell him how the words were spelled. soon after that he wanted the adults just to read the letters the to him. he would piece the letters together and form them into sentences handling the work of reading himself. quote: before i was 4, i knew how to be read to with people spelling the words, he said, so when i knew braille, i already knew how to read and learned in only a month or two. jo jo didn't have much use for play time. quote: i didn't like play, he said. i told the kindergarten teacher, play stinks. i wanted people to read to me by spelling

>> he was an officer? he was . >> he was a maverick. >> yeah. >> he was fortunate. some people wanted to sack him a few times. he actually produced the results. >> any other questions. thank you very much. [applause] general john allen you can watch this entire remarks from the brookings institution at c-span.org. >> i've known president very well for some period of time. let me take a minute to talk about my own relationship. it's in that context i hear those comments. i've known since early i didn't '09 but got to know him very well from the time i took command in mid '11 to draw freeze from ryan's book president karzai has the hardest job on the planet. with the numbers of years he's been in place, the things that he has had to deal with on a regular basis he has -- he does have a difficult mission. he has a difficult set of challenges on any given day on virtually all issues. he has to balance a domestic constituency that is both triable and ethic, he has to balance his rhetoric with the potential for peace. he has to balance what he says with regard to his regi

>> he was devastated. >> he was not just devastated, he was embittered.he whole first term did not accomplish anything. he was either in mourning or he was attempting to help peggy eaton out. he was fighting with his favorite niece and nephew. he saw her as a surrogate for rachel. if they could treat her this way, they might have treated his wife that way. he could not let it go. >> next up is a call from dorothy in ohio. >> thank you for taking my call. the program has been remarkable so far. how did rachel live with andrew jackson's fiery temper? >> the only person who could control jackson when he was in a rage was rachel. one particular time, but they were going down river and there was the boat ahead of them with a number of happy young folks who were all drunk. they were zigzagging so that their boat was being held up. he said, i will kill a couple of them. she stopped that whole operation. i do not know if he would have or not, but maybe. >> next is nancy from new jersey. >> i would like to know if either of your guests have ever seen the old movie

i didn't know that it was in his sock. it was new to me that day.the president's clothes were being removed in order to prepare him for surgery, they took his socks off. and out came the card. the little card. and it fell to the floor. >> it's a good story, and it almost happened that way, but not quite. an agent in the room said the small card was actually in reagan's coat pocket. someone tossed it into a pile of ruined clothes in a corner and the secret code to start world war iii wound up in one of reagan's shoes. but reagan, on the gurney, was in no position to react to any sudden foreign attack, and neither was his vice president, the first george bush, who had flown to texas that afternoon for a speech. at the white house, secretary of state alexander haig called bush, but his plane didn't have a secure phone line. allen says haig was trying to explain the crisis. i was saying, george, george, it's al, al haig! al haig! turn around! turn around! >> but haig could not tell the vice president why. in the emergency room, secret service agent jerr

they believe he was more of a leader but he was more of the one being told what to do. >> he was doing the legwork and the syrian was pulling the strings? >> it i peeappears that way. >> we tracked him down living in patterson, new jersey. >> he was not particularly religious why would you go to a box? >> e(inaudible). >> they are haunted by this piece of evidence. >> when he was arrested his car we found booklets, flight information at the airport where we know the pilot practiced out of. >> could he explain why he had the flight pamphlets? >> he didn't know how they got there. >> how did chahazeh got asylum? >> he knew what to present and what not to present. >> the fbi have been all over him like a rash yet the immigration judge doesn't know this? who dropped the ball? >> good question. we don't know. >> this is the 2002 court documents in which the judge granted chahazeh asylum saying he remained to a group that were hopelessly in debt. >> he helped him fill out the application. it's in her handwriting. >> it was unusual for a federal judge to grant asylum based on a group called h

certainly was looking at him. was it an inside job?ow else could the thieves have pulled this off? and else did the f.b.i. suspected? >> reporter: dawn and the damage was done. when security guards showed up for their regular morning shift and rang the buzzer, which they normally did, they knew immediately something was wrong. they called their supervisor and the f.b.i. and police were on the scene. reality sunk in. $500 million worth of art was gone. >>> there was no trace of the thieves. authorities got an idea of what the bad guys looked like from the two night watchmen, the only ones to see the thieves up close. but it all happened so fast. they were tied up and blindfolded within minutes. watchman rick abbot gave this description of the guards to a sketch artist. >> the guy who was dealing with me was kind of taller and skinny and was wearing his gold-framed, like, round glasses, if i remember correctly and he had a mustache. and i remember before he arrested me, it looked really greasy. i was thinking he was using some funky kind

was us? >> no it was not you, it was the planning commission. thank you for pointing that out. this house is west of my house and somewhere on the planning commission said that it was north. and i spent the whole time in front of the planning commission and i have the photographs for you and i can show them to you, showing a view from my house and this is the house, 1325 in the foreground and the pacific ocean in the background, which is west. >> so then you are off. >> i am in number 20 on sanlorenzo. >> we can see it from the side. >> i am behind it. >> okay. >> thank you, we will hear from the permit holder now. >> good evening, president hwang and commissioners. representative for the permit holder and the respondent. this is in response to the appellant's concern regarding obstruction of sunlight or air flow, the appellant like he mentioned is located behind the project. and so, the appellant's property is actually much higher than the grade of the property project. so, i don't think tha

there was a period, as you know, where all of this was considered irrelevant.there was a strong school of academic inking that markets could take care of themselves. the government should retreat from markets as much as possible. with efficient markets and national expectations, you know the story. all the confrontations, all of the brilliance of a financial engineers, all of the premium on trading which arose very rapidly into 1980's, it was a different world. that confidence -- that feeling that markets can take care of themselves has evaporated at this time. it is the biggest crisis we have had in economics in may be short of 100 years. how many people anticipated anything like this situation 6 or 8 months before it got underway? it just kind of a commentary i guess on the state of economics and economic analysis and theory. i think you can learn something from this. right now, i read almost every day. i was struck by all the great uncertainties that exist. problems as far as the eye can see. the euro, a great recession, the rise of china. what uncertainties are there? i looked at a

but it was a fairly long desk and the computer was all the way over to the left and it was almost all the way over to the right. so it wasn't just within arm's reach. >> reporter: still, rick abbot never found any reason to use that panic button. that is until the night of march 18th. that night was unusual from the moment rick arrived at work. he learned his usual partner had called in sick. they couldn't find anyone else, so they paired him with a daytime gallery guard. >> when i got there, you know, my partner was there -- well, i knew him. i didn't know him very well. i knew him from just around the locker room and he was the only person they could get. so i figured i'd take the first round. >> that first round takes longer than usual. the fire alarm goes off for no apparent reason. so does another alarm on the fourth floor. after all that, rick returns and the gallery guard takes his turn making the rounds. the clock reads 1:24 a.m. and rick is alone at the guard desk. suddenly, the night takes a dangerous turn. >> he rang the doorbell. i could see him on the outside camera. i co

so it was possible that that was it, although he was right in. abigail was walking by and looking over his shoulder. and saying, you're not going to buy that place, are you? in any event she did convince him in the middle of the letter to not buy that farm, but instead to buy more. so she is doing these three things. she is in trade. she is buying vermont land comanche is speculating and appreciating government securities, and you can see my pet theory. my pet theory was trashy achieve the successes that would give her confidence. she already had a lot, but she had more after the war after she made all this money for her husband. and so what i wanted to see if i looked at these three that we have in the handout, 1782 lederberg, it would receive more confidence. 1776. by that time she has made a bunch of money for her husband's . and i have an extra time, i could take to things other superficial and similar. comparative casey how much more confident she is the second letter. does anybody else have a chance to read it? which one do you think is mor

at times he was aggressive, one individual was ill. he was on dialysis. and we did go out and the individual that had been a head of the naval forces came along. and so john reid, who had been the head of citigroup at that time, we had dinner with him. i decided i would wait until dinner was over. and that way we wanted to step down at the top of his game, it could be done. but nobody would believe that. the country was in on that. the step down while you can. what happened was he went on, things went all to heck, they said he was going to die. now, how many insurance companies that you know of provide those kinds of services to the country? well, there are many others as well. point of the book was to say how different and valuable we were to this country. and the thousands of people have made that possible. the second part of the book is what happens. we had a disgraced attorney general. one who decided that there was a law on the books called the martin act, it was an act of 1921. it was designed to go after bootleggers. one of the staff had dug it out

and when i walked out today and they said i was positive it was like i was livin in a fog. but i was in a daze. and i went back to work like nothing ever happened but it did it devastate i didn't know where to turn to talk to. how to tell family. i was lost. it was my mother father and we were any kitchen. and my husband says oh hi how are you what's going on and they say nothing you know i had him with me there as well when at home you know i need you guys to this is one involved with it in a mother was cooking we came in he said he wanted to talk and he came in my husband came in. he told us he had something to say to us and it's own that i was a heavy positive this is why i'm in a relationship with a mother started crying and being the man he is asking so it is me your dresses and they bring you little he said that they said mother was going out and just life floored me that started the whole argument and i just walked out you know that put a big strain on the relationship. is different it's better than it was there isn't a whole lot of conversation or close to none conv

this was a different role. i wanted to share with you then the typical consultant role you might have for some of the other planning processes. our job as chris said was to help citizen planners really become citizen planners by doing technical work that they could understand and ultimately that they could own. i wanted to go over an overall theory and the first we were providing direct technical assistance. we weren't just providing ta to the planning staff or leadership, but to all the folks involved in the whole process. related to that was the notion what we were trying to do with our product, was to create citizen planners and not just documents. the product that comes before you today has citizens' fingerprints all over it. people can actually see the direct imprint of their ideas. and that leads also to ownership of the process. the process was a very significant part of this plan as chris and jim mentioned to you. and it can seem very laborious, but that is in fact, what felt for folks that they owned t

he was born in 1911, when he was 12, his father was stationed here, his father was in the navy . little ron came through the panama canal with his family, and that was a memorable trip for him because on that ship there was a figure who would change his life, and his name was lieutenant commander snake thompson. many people used to say that man didn't really exist, but he did. he was a real figure, and he was -- part of his assignment in the navy. he had been a spy in japan and he was also a cat fancier. he was responsible for introducing burmese cats. he was a fascinating figure. he actually trained cats with according to ron. and he had a trained cat named psycho -- [laughter] anyway. young ron hub bard was on the ship coming through the panel canal on the way to washington, and snake william had just been vienna to talk to freud. he was writing an account for the navy. it had to do with the mental health of veterans and serving military personnel. he had gone to vienna to learn what he could from freud. he brought some of the was in to the information to the young man. when th

by 1951, it was a new world and television was a part of it.ovie theatres were closing in waves, 55 in new york alone. to make matters worse, hollywood was coming apart. anti-trust action dismantled the entire studio system. the monopoly of the movies was over. hollywood's reaction to tv was like one of its plot lines. at first denial, then feeling threatened, followed by fierce competition until embracing the adversary. yet it was television that produced a new generation of movie directors that told stories in new ways, with movies like "the manchurian candidate," "bonnie and clyde," and "mash." the studios didn't disappear; they adapted. and so did the movies. today, we are on the verge of another revolution, as a whole new range of digital technologies will change both the business and style of motion pictures. in this program, narrated by cliff robertson, we will see some surprises as tv collided with the movies in "film in the television age." ♪ just friends ♪ lovers no more ♪ just friends ♪ but not like before ♪ film... tv. one is revere

that was the idea behind it. it wasn't secret at all but it was a very public thing. it was written about and whitey bulger was one of a number of inmates who volunteered fo forw. the thing that came out much later that we always hurt a little bit about perhaps is that the cia had a secret role in the. where they were feeding these doctors in atlanta at emory who are involved in this, you know, other drugs to test. on the subject in addition to the lsd as part of their espionage, counterespionage chemical warfare interests. so that was a secret private side that didn't come out until years later. but it was a very public project at that time. so there's a big story in atlanta paper about it. the newspaper interviewed the lead doctor, of emory university and quoted from a colorful account of one inmate's lsd trip tto the newspaper did not identify the inmate but whitey and the other prisoners easily could've recognized him as wingfield are dead, the newspaper that credit has lifted the description of the trip that he wrote for the atlanta which was the prison magazine,

he was telling us he was not going to change.not believe. >> i made no effort to convert christopher hitchens in the end. i thought that would be disrespectful. the situation he was in, i was trying to serve as a physician to someone who had cancer. it would have been inappropriate to try to use that try to impose my perspective on his. we had interesting jousting back and forth, much of a humorous. werew close to his death you able to talk to him? >> i saw him quite a lot until the last three months, when he went to texas to do this proton beam therapy and never got well enough to come back. see him much. >> let's go back to nih? how big is the campus? were you able to talk to him? >> it is an amazing place. about 320 acres in bethesda, maryland, and on that campus, there are about 17,000 people, amazing people. about 5000 to 6000 of them have doctoral agrees, and they are experts, on almost anything you can think of, from basic science to clinical research. thelso have on that campus largest research hospital in the world, 240

i think that there was one that was. i think it was the jewish museum building that was the old power station that was there. and so much of the historic fabric was -- and i'm not sure about this, but -- or someone tried to delist it. if the building is damaged or destroyed, not through the austria cpitions of the owner or planning -- if it burns down. >> if it is a source of blight or there is no potential development opportunities based on the limitation of the use of the space, do you consider those things that would potentially be cause for concern and should be considered to reverse -- >>> well, i think there is a distinction. i think of a building as a landmark different from a historic resource. the harding building is a resource and, you know, it's a difficult question. i think if, you know, if the building literally is causing, you know, property damage, then there is -- that discussion height and bulk had whether that building should be removed or not. ~ should be had it's under duress you would actually consid

he was stalking us, he was trying to get our attention.ys have security staff around us. so he didn't want to get caught again. >> my first question to you is, you don't think of it as a problem. >> right. >> if i told you it's a problem for me -- >> right. >> -- now what? >> the truth? if i caught you in the right position, it wouldn't matter. i would still try to masturbate in your presence. >> even if it upset me? >> even if it upset you. because i know a lady told me, don't you consider that to be mentally raping her, disrespecting her or, you know, and so on, et cetera. but i guess at that time, it's not about you. it's about me. and what i want to do. yeah, it's sick, i know it's sick. i'm not normal. i know i'm not normal. the average man is not normal. because we wouldn't be sitting in here if we were normal. >>> coming up -- >> i killed her with a big knife. >> why? >> because i had no gun with me. >> in belgium, a bizarre interview about murder is interrupted by a jewelry delivery. >> an officer is bringing shawn a watch. and eve

was. what do you make of this? could have the lion actually have opened the gate to get to her? >> well, anderson, they're very powerful animals. if the lock had been left off or a chain off it, he could have pushed the latch up and got in there obviously. watch it, it brings back so many memori memories. it really is hard to watch that because i think i have told you before that we had a little 3-year-old boy back in 1972 that one of my lions took his arm off, and it was beyond horrific picking it up and taking it there being put back on the boy at the shoulder. the point is, and i appreciate what the father is saying. i can't describe what i'm feeling. it has been that way the last 48 hours. again, i understand what he's saying, the love and what his daughter did, but the word fearless is difficult to use because i have filmed these animals in the wild, a lion taking down a 2,000 pound buffalo in a second. you have seen this yourself. you go to africa quite a bit, and it's like, bam. and

but so in britain the trade commission of the opinion was complaining that i was every time he was going to negotiate with the united states in front of him when we see his counterpart here you have your office in a garden dr seuss' fields and on his back he would have c.e.o.'s of big banks a big insurance companies telling please do that for me please do that for us but when charlie and britain was turning his back to see where his report was he was actually having only some minister saying don't do this don't do that and please do that it only but not more. and he was really not very happy you know because we discovered that there is a whole world of lobbyists in washington to tell their government what they want in the trade negotiations and we thought this is the way we have to go we have to do something like that the european institutions is asking for it institution cannot only rely on the information given by the member states and the experts in the finance ministry i think need to get the information directly from the the banks of the insurance company. so then at a point in time

i was just really -- it was very i opening to me. i felt like, well, this is part of the end of world war ii that i know so little about and here is an opportunity to focus on just a couple of week period of time and some huge decisions that are made in a moment in history is a really shining moment for america. tavis: shining in what way? >> i think at the end of world war ii when this decision of how they were going to handle emperor hirohito, if you pull the u.s. population -- pullolle the u.s. population, people wanted him hung. there are different historians that have different takes. history has a different interesting way when you look back on it it can shift and change. so but i think the decisions made and ultimately what macarthur recommended to washington to keep hirohito in the emperorship to help rebuild japan, even after the way that america was attacked by japan and the hundreds of thousands of lives that were lost in the south pacific campaign, that is a real moment of reconciliation and i think making the right choic

>> it was, well, it was a little surprising, but it was more -- i felt apprehensive, but i was going with it. >> what do you mean you felt apprehensive? >> well, i wasn't expecting that, so i didn't want to tell him no, so i just kept going with it. >> reflect back on the weekend and your way back to palm desert, did you consider your actions and your own, not his, but your own actions as it relates to that-- >> i considered it. >> and how did you feel about that? >> well, i trusted what i was told by him so i didn't feel like there was any-- i just felt, i felt a little b bit-- i hate to put it this way, i felt a little bit used, but i knew i'd gone there willingly on my own. >> so mr. alexander was sleeping in the bed next to you, right. >> yes. >> and your bags were in the home, right. >> in the bedroom. >> in the bedroom. did you get up and grab a gun and shoot him? >> no. >> did you grab a knife and be stab him in the bed? >> no, travis flipped out again and he stood up and he stepped out of the shower and he picked me up crouching, but he lifted me up as he was screaming stupid

i knew at that point he was conscious and alive. which was good. but the best thing for him would be not to move. >> several people in the tide pools rushed over to assist them. it was just minutes after that that the paramedics were here. >> the gentleman was removed from the lagoon area on a back board. as he was carried past, i could see he had significant cuts and scrapes down his sides and arms. the woman walked out on her own accord but had some lacerations on the back of her legs. >> the victims are loaded into an ambulance and taken to the hospital. where they're treated for nonlife threatening injuries. >> all in all, i think they were very, very lucky. people have died on these rocks before. >> oh, jesus. >> oh! >>> a high-tech racing catamaran wipes out during an exhibition run and sends crew members overboard. >> it was a real quick, violent crash. when you see somebody, a teammate of yours fall through a wing like that, you just never know what's going to happen. >> june 13th, 2011. oracle racing teams debut a high speed catamaran to p

>> i was hoping that you would. >> one was related. >> i am much older than you. >> one was actually related to the height and we actually did specifically call out the height that was on the plans which was an incorrect data. >> yeah. >> and i think that we have corrected everything now and these revised plans. >> it appears that was the case. but, if you could also and i'm looking at the orientation of this site verses mr. linn's home. and it appears to me that the site is in a way northwest direction from mr. linn's house. >> if i could put on the overhead, a parcel map that was included this is part of the packet that we gave to the commission and it should be in your materials. so you are correct, it is i would say, west to northwest, it is very much to the west, but very slightly to the north this is just a little bit of the compass area here and the west and corresponding up to be on the plans and so the relationship, the appellant's property is here and the subject property is here. so it is located to the west but also slightly to the north. >> and it also is down hill as we

was blackmailing. why did not a single government say anything about the deck or taylor hicks. or about the other frets that followed. they were elected representatives. but we felt that this was a betrayal and we wanted to do something about it it's important for a bigger public to know about this and we decided to publish a book. and besides collecting data we started to make interviews. and undercover interviews. finally in spring one thousand nine hundred seventy we assembled the results of our investigations and interviews into a report europe. rescheduled the book launch for the big east summit in them so that all the media would be there we were excited as. we had prepared the book launch and how from all before the first friends started to arrive. very little or no press showed up. so unfortunately our first public events was really not noticed by the pope. and. you drop in to the right down this road block today and groove a key exercise. the strengthening of the rule system of multilateral tr

what was their -- was there any correlation in the political persuasion? >> they tended to be conservative, but not consistently enough so that you can -- i mean, one of the people i discuss in the book, again, is george washington. the richest president we ever had, perhaps, the richest person in america at the time he was president. you wouldn't describe the politics as conservative, i think, and in the scheme of at least world politics. >> and i was also curious, like, what did a person like steve jobs do with his money since he didn't give it away? >> he put it back into his company, and he, i'm sure, set up large trusts for his children -- >> such a huge amount. >> a huge amount of money. i kept wondering whether after he died the time was going to come when we were going to be surprised because it was going ton revealed that after all he was generous, just didn't make noise about it. while, i think by now the estate has been probated now, and if there was anything, we'd know, and it doesn't look like there was anything, and is that a bad thing? he ve

>> it was, well, it was a little surprising, but it was more -- i felt apprehensive, but i was going with it. >> what do you mean you felt apprehensive? >> well, i wasn't expecting that, so i didn't want to tell him no, so i just kept going with it. >> reflect back on the weekend and your way back to palm desert, did you consider your actions and your own, not his, but your own actions as it relates to that-- >> i considered it. >> and how did you feel about that? >> well, i trusted what i was told by him so i didn't feel like there was any-- i just felt, i felt a little b bit-- i hate to put it this way, i felt a little bit used, but i knew i'd gone there willingly on my own. >> so mr. alexander was sleeping in the bed next to you, right. >> yes. >> and your bags were in the home, right. >> in the bedroom. >> in the bedroom. did you get up and grab a gun and shoot him? >> no. >> did you grab a knife and be stab him in the bed? >> no, travis flipped out again and he stood up and he stepped out of the shower and he picked me up crouching, but he lifted me up as he was screaming stupid

terrorists al qaeda or al qaeda affiliated that was knocked out of time i mean that was that was so stupid as to be now is that it's not stupid in fact it was it was. there are it was being hunted by saddam hussein he saw them as as the religious zealots who threatened his his secular regime let's not let's not relive it gave every every aspect of what exactly we got into the war for the fact of the matter is that by two thousand and seven we were losing the war we were in a bad place and the bush administration and congress to their credit changed course pushed for the surge and if you look at iraq now. it's in a much better place not only since two thousand seven but since before two thousand and three which you may you know forget but there was an actual dictator in charge of the country who was killing his own people and i'm not sure iraq is in a better place or not i mean we profess to be a democracy but yet you know we have and have been a simple lecture there on top of you know republicans up talk about fraud waste and abuse iraq is an example of fraud waste and government abuse peo
