if there was war with spain, all burr's contacts amongst the militia generals people like andrew jackson, we will go to war with spain. we will bring you out 5,000 people, 10,000 people and so that was the critical thing. and in the summer of 1806, it looked as though war would break out. because spanish troops crossed into what was taken to be united states territory. they moved down to just about there and america -- the united states' line was there. and it's effectively about 65 miles. now, you could have had war with no trouble at all. indeed, in october, 1806, wilkinson was discussing with his second in command, thomas cushing and at that moment the fate of the united states was in his hands if they had made the attack, the army would have been engaged, war would have broken out and the militia would have supported burr coming down the mississippi. burr certainly intended to take new orleans, whether it was a huge angry rebellious french population waiting to welcome him, waiting to give him gold and guns. ostensibly he was going to go to vera cruz to invade mexico but who knows? w

and michael jackson's "this is it" won the weekend box office. i'm russ mitchell, cbs news. ( music playing ) if toyota gets credit for being the most fuel efficient car company in america, well, then how do you explain all this? chevy malibu, cobalt, silverado, and the all-new equinox. compare them to anyone. may the best car win. can tell you something about osteoporosis you don't already know. it runs in families - my mother has it, and now i have it. so even though i tried to keep my bones strong, it wasn't enough. now, once-monthly boniva is helping me do more. it didn't just stop my bone loss. boniva worked with my body to stop and reverse my bone loss. and studies show, after one year on boniva, nine out of ten women stopped and reversed theirs, too. (announcer) don't take boniva if you have low blood calcium, severe kidney disease, or can't sit or stand for at least one hour. follow dosing instructions carefully. stop taking boniva and tell your doctor if you have difficult or painful swallowing, chest pain or severe or continuing heartbu

how about vincent jackson? got some space, takes up the field, nice move, the ball's in the air. there's nothing corey webster the can do. jim: his second touchdown catch of the game. they go 80 yards in a minute and 46 seconds and never even use that one time-out. norv who has quite a history here as a redskins head coach and dallas cowboy offensive coordinator reallyished the chance to come back to this stadium one more time. phil: that's what he was doing all week to his players, how lucky you are to come here, the nfl, all the big games he has seen here in this stadium. no field goals, guys, he's telling merriman. jim: i tell you another one norv turner was here for was anderson when he was on the rams staff. said one of his favorite memories in the nfl business for him. ended the 80-yard drive. hixon. can he get some room? hixon slides off the first hit then brought down at the 29 with 15 seconds. giants have two time-outs. phil: if it goes well, they have maybe three plays. that's if one of them can be caught and get out of bounds. jim: can they give lawrence tynes any chan

probably heard the story of how in 1987 students marched across the stanford college campus with jesse jackson chanting hey, hey, ho, ho, western culture's got to go. that time, around the late '80s, was the time when professors across the country reconfigured their reading lists getting rid of the bad old dead white males and replacing them with authors picked for their gender or their politics or their ethnicity or sexual orientation or for some sort of victim status. of course, not all the classics completely disappeared. colleges still taught aristotle, shakespeare, but they began to teach those classics really differently. i'm going to give a could couple examples about shakespeare. sprigally -- traditionally for about 400 years intelligent readers, college professors said essentially three things about shakespeare. they said he was universal, of universal interest. he's not of an age but for all time as ben johnson said. they said he mirrored nature, that there was something real about what shakespeare was able to put in his plays that's realer than any other literature. again, ben johns

if you think about the way patronage was used, the jacksonians spoils system and the way in which jackson was held up as a monarch like president. these are efforts to consolidate the kind of chaos that had been expressed in the first part of the 19th century, the first two decades of the 19th century. that most of these political changes as i say to place in the northern state. they were mocked by the new emergence of men. men who lacked the usual social, moral credentials that the founders had had. there is an extraordinary letter written by benjamin trover was the great architect and at the same time was a surveyor of jefferson's public believes that he is a good republican, that is a jeffersonian, but he writes this letter in 1806 to the italian patriot, philip. and he complains in this letter, which is hard for him to do because he is speaking about jeffersonian republicans, about the kinds of men who are getting into the congress from the state of pennsylvania where he lived. they were ignorant men. they were unlearned men. they were not gentlemen. not a single one of the congressma

jackson was never charged with the crime. he reportedly paid $20 million to settle the suit. >>> i'm jane velez-mitchell. here's my issue. it's one of the most horrific stories of family secrets getting worse. six men from the same family are charged with sexually abusing young members of their own family. most of the details cannot be repeated on tv. we're talking children allegedly forced to engage in sex act and bestiality. and now new allegations that one of these men forced children to kidnap and murder a complete stranger. and they even allegedly buried a newborn baby alive. this twisted list of accusations goes on and on and on and perhaps the most unbelievable, three of the suspects are actually lay ministers in the community of christchurch. how in the hell does that happen? if true, it's the ultimate proof that appearances mean absolutely nothing. i'm jane velez-mitchell. that's my "issue." >> find out what else jane has on her mind. watch "issues with jane velez-mitchell" every night at 7:00 eastern right here on h

memory of books in jackson, mississippi, hosts the 25-minute event. >> we thank everyone else for coming. i have a couple of confessions to make at first. one is i'm not a public speaker. this is a foreign environment for me. so whatever your expectations are, i hope they're met, but i won't be surprised. second, i don't go to book signings as a general rule, so i have no idea what goes on at these. so i'm going to do what i feel comfortable doing, and i hope it works. however this turns out, i will make one guarantee and that is that the book is better than the presentation. [laughter] so i guess the moral is so far don't judge a book by its author. [laughter] probably the first question some people ask is why do we need another book about james meredith and the riot at ole miss in 1962? when i started working on this book about 1991 and not working intensely, but that was when i first started playing with the topic, there were already four books out. this book is published in 2009, and there are in the interim four more books on roughly the topic or something closely related. and there

and we have to have -- ideally, we have to have something that congressman jesse jackson jr. has been pushing for for years and that is the individual right to vote in hour constitution, which we don't have. we have the right to not have women or african-americans discriminated against, but if the white guys don't have a verifiable right to vote either, what value is that. if you have an individual right to vote, you can have everybody registered to vote, just like they're registered to go and kill and die in the military, when they turn 18, and you get rid of this busy work of registering people to vote, that people then think of as activism and get on to the real act i havism and you have -- activism and you have paper ballots that are hand counted in front of a variety of witnesses and announced at the polling place and totaled regionally, because otherwise, we don't know who we're voting for, and it doesn't mean stay home. it means get out and vote in bigger numbers, it means get out and do exit polling, it means get out and fight voter suppression, and polling places tha

last friday i saw some of you at the white house state briefing that i hosted with lisa jackson the administrator of our environmental protection agency. at that briefings we talked about many of the steps my department is taking in this area for funding research on the health costs of greenhouse gas emissions to investing in committees to help demaris fanta climate related disease, to slashing greenhouse gas emissions and are owned buildings. this is not an afterthought for my department. this is a key part of our broader health strategy. wore and more we understand that health is not something that happens justin doctors' offices. whether you are healthier not depends on what you eat and drink, what e bright, how you get around and where you live. a world that is heating up and powered by coal-fired plants that filled the sky with harmful greenhouse gas is going to have fewer healthy people then the world that runs on clean renewable energy. that is why even if our plan that was not in jeopardy, even if the energy independence was not crucial toward national security and even if clean energy wa

and jackson from portland. usc tried because they lost plenty from a year ago. losing daniel hackett, and mark derosen. that's 250 assists. >> marques: mo jones. super quick mo jones out of saginaw, michigan. that sounds like he plays basketball. here's the pressure you talked about. jones, all up in the grille of marcus simmons. forces simmons to mishandle the basketball, which leads to a usc turnover. >> steve: this is the hardwood series. the games you'll see, baylor against arizona state. number one kansas at ucla. they fell today. they lost all three games in that tournament in anaheim. >> marques: very respectable showing against butler. really turned that program around. and then, losing to the long beach state team. a lot of work to be done for the bruins. >> steve: usc is rebuilding, as well. last year, they went 22-13. they won their first pac-10 title, beating arizona state by three. that was after trailing by 15 at half. blocked by stepheson. good defense. >> marques: converting the pass on the interior. >> steve: right now, nebraska, denying the pas
