my meineke. >>> in today's "xyz." this cereal is meant to help a nonprofit organization. bengals. you buy it and the proceeds go to this organization feed the children. it has a number you can call on the side that you can call and make a donation. but when you call this number on the side of this box, you actually don't get a person on the line to take your credit card for a donation. oh, you still get a woman who wants to take your credit card number but she's offering a type of satisfaction that differs from the kind you get from making a charitable donation, if you get what i'm saying. the wrong prefix is listed here. it's supposed to be 1-888. instead it says 1-800. that leads you to a phone sex hot line. you can see where that's maybe an honest mistake. but we've seen these type of mistakes before. but for some reason we see them all the time. "american idol" last year put out the wrong number for a contestant, led to a sex line. florida governor charlie crist last year supposed to give out the number for a children's health insurance program sex line. new york the

it is time right now for the xyz of it.er, important stuff. equally as important is president obama's midterm, the halfway mark in his presidency. mr. president, 2012 will be here before you know it. obviously, i don't sit where you are, so i don't pretend to know the enormous challenges you face every single day. but from where i sit, from where many americans who look up and see you every day on the tv, we want to see a president who is confident about the direction in which he is leading our country. regardless of our political affiliations. this isn't about republican or democrat. it's about being an american. you said that you would boost the economy. reduce unemployment. abolish don't ask, don't tell. reform immigration and change the hyper partisan atmosphere in washington. sure, you have accomplished a lot and you have met with some resistance. all presidents do. but honestly, if you don't

my meineke. >>> it is time right now for xyz. guardians of young people. bullies don't just happen overnight. your child doesn't one day wake up and decide to tease others to the point of humiliation or hit them. as the old adage says, it starts at home. starts with not only what you tell your children but how you show them with actions. your actions speak louder than words. if you argue in front of your kids, cuss out your mate or the customer service person on the phone or the person who cuts you off in traffic, if you yell at them or berate them -- you know what i'm talking about. boy, get your butt off my couch. where are you going with that on? you look like a hooker. they think it's okay, even cool to do it too. all i wanted to do as a child was emulate my parents and other grown-ups. they were so cool, and i just wanted to be like them. i'm sure my own parents didn't actually think this through as well. it was a different time then. i herd them argue. i heard them go off in traffic. no one is perfect. believe me, i love th

. >>> time now for the "xyz."dia airport to atlanta on delta flight 413. i was asleep but woke up with a jolt on the final approach. the pilot had aborted the landing and throttled up. a few minutes later he announced a problem with the wing flap and we would land without using the flaps that would make for a fast approach. not to worry he said though we'd see emergency vehicles. the landing was smooth. the fire trucks were there. i'm not much for clapping when a plane lands. i tend to think a safe landing is included in the price. yesterday however i clapped. here we hear about them much more often than you do. what you hear about are irritating airline fees. as a guy who flies three or four times a week i want to say thanks to the airline employees. they have issues but in the end we rely on them to keep us safe. i kn t

. >>> time now for the "xyz." dow again coming close to 11,000. what does it mean? is it important? and if not, is it psychologically important? it is neither financially nor psychologically important. it is simply a round number and we like that sort of thing. basically, a big round number. that's an interesting opportunity to examine how we got there. this is not a particularly significant milestone. the dow has crossed back and forth across the 11,000 line several times. most recently on may 3rd just before that flash crash you all remember. the dow closed yesterday at its highest lefl since may 4th so a move above 11,000 won't change that comparison. of more significance perhaps the end of this week october 9th marks the third anniversary of the record highs of both the dow and the s&p 500. the dow closed back in 2007. on that day at 14,164. right now it is about 10,952. this is worth noting. the dow is up 5% for the year so in the unlikely event the market ends where it is right now investors will have chalke

. >>> time now for the "xyz" of it. on tuesday, a federal judge told the u.s.licy which bars gays from serving openly in the military. now the justice department is pushing to keep the judge's order from going into effect, even though the obama administration has come out against "don't ask, don't tell." plus, the military's now telling troops not to alter their behavior in any way.

that's my "xyz."

. >>> time now for the "xyz." anyone that watches knows i'm a very frequent flier.airplanes than with my family and i have this weird relationship with the nation's airlines especially with the increased fees and excuses for poor service. you also know i give credit where credit is due and today it's due. looks like the tarmac delay rules imposed in april are having an effect. the u.s. department of transportation says there was only one delay that topped three hours in the entire month of august. this is the tarmac delay. last year 66 flights sat on the runway or tarmac at least three hours in august. what a difference! now, you might recall when the government was about to impose these rules and the hefty finals that go with them, the airlines protested. they said the rules would lead to an overabundance of caution on their part leading them to cancel flights if there was any chance of them being off schedule. back then i said enough with the excuses. an airline's top priority is get us there safely and relatively on time. considering the latest delay numbers i'm

. >>> it is time now for the "xyz."n means we're heading into the dirtiest most negative advertising cycle of the campaign. according to campaign media analysis, almost half of all tv and other media campaign ads this election season are negative. one group is front and center. the u.s. chamber of commerce, a tax exempt advocate for american businesses that's come out strongly against president obama's economic reform push and many other things this administration is trying to do. it touts itself as the world's largest business federation fighti fighting for free enterprise in congress. while it 90% of businesses are from across the country it stands accused of channeling money from the other 4% into negative ads somewhat anonymously. that's because it's hard to know who's funding these. the donors are not disclosed. some donations can be pieced together through tax filings and other public records. for example, "the new york times" says proou dention financial donated $2 million to the chamber's ad campaigns to try to
