the one thing i received 8 weeks of in-patient treatment at walter reid army medical center for stuttering. i had never been with a group of stutterers before, we used to joke about, we're going to get out of the army and become disjock kis. i didn't know that i would later earn my living lecturing to university students around the world, so for that and many other things that i gained during my military services, i'm deeply grateful. in my career, i overcame one of my disabilities, present ones, learning disabilities, after having been rejected to go to the school of my choice, michigan state university, i got that letter that says you have not yet demonstrated the ability to succeed in our program. i came back and earned a phd from that university. this carried me into other areas within my educational career of 27 years, i became very much involved in community service, followed the teachers of robert green leaf in servant leadership, most notably i led students for 8 years in four different countries to perform 3200 hours of service, the ark here in san francisco is one of the areas wh

it's part of a plan to ease traffic near the national institutes of health campus now that walter reid is housed there, too. but montgomery county reporter kevin lewis is live in bethesda with a fly in that ointment. kevin, tell us about it. kevin: hi there alison. yeah it is the height of the afternoon rush hour and this is the scene along rockville pike just north of downtown bethesda. traffic really bottlenecks here. although these are normal driving conditions they are terribly desized and so the plan to add more parking spots isn't getting support from all. over the next 20 years, n.i.h. plans on constructing more buildings which will generate thousands of new jobs. n.i.h. says it will need 1,000 additional parking spaces to accommodate these extra employees. but many fear that will pose a serious challenge to the already overtaxed roadways in and around bethesda and so members of congress, the maryland statehouse and montgomery county council mailed a letter to n.i.h.'s director asking him to reconsider their parking plans. >> the alternatives are taking metro and doing what a lo

that day met with the parents of walter scott today, for the first time since he turned over his video to the family. joining me now, msnbc natural correspondent, joy reid. joy, i know you've been down there today and you've been talking to the family. one thing that struck me about this is that the initial thought is for a third brake light being out. it was pretty clearly, essentially an investigatory, a pre-textual stop because he saw this guy and want to search him and see what he was up to. >> yeah, absolutely. and the initial parts of this approximate three-minute video are pretty routine. the third brake light, which i assume would be a minor violation, but it becomes very clear that walter scott did not want to continue the interaction. we're still trying to confirm at what stage he was in purchasing that car. so he clearly did not want to continue the interaction. but there was nothing in that initial stop that seemed threatening or violent in any way. but once mr. scott gets out of the car and runs, that is where the big questions begin. the hearing "taser, taser, taser." hearing, something on the order of "stop or i'll taze you," and later on
