dallas braden on the mound. andino up playing at short as cesar izturis discovered this afternoon that he needed an appendectomy. yahoo. so they are doing that. may be done by now. pop-up, second base, kennedy over to get it. andino retired. one away. >> buck: a couple of years ago, hayden penn was in seattle anticipating his start and he, too, had an appendectomy and missed significant time. the suggestion that i'm hearing is that he may into the miss significant time so that's a little surprising. >> gary: they are hoping for the best. >> buck: yeah, absolutely. >> gary: brian roberts and the pitch is taken outside for a ball. he delivered a single first time up and got out of the 0- for-17 he was in. that one will be fouled back upstairs. >> buck: this is the kind of game that, as hitter, you have to dpriend against dallas braden. you can't think about getting all six runs back in one i inning. one thing they have not been doing in this road trip is string back-to-back hits. >> gary: the road trip in seattle

matt holliday -- how does he get the votes over dallas braden? but nonetheless, you voted for him. >> when we come back, we'll check on the possible replace. for cesar izturis who was out of the line-up, an appendectomy on the west coast. ?

jeremy guthrie against dallas braden. into first three four inning, a 5.7 e.r.a. ant team opposition hitting against him is almost .300. no doubt he puts a lot of time in on his mechanics and everything he averages now 6 innings per starts and that's 103 pitches for jeremy guthrie. that's not like him at all. he has to start cutting the pitch count down. after the 5th inning, he is great. no doubt about that because after that, the team is batting only .221. jeremy just has to cut down the amount of pitches and we need to get him late into some ball games. >> jim: on the other side, dallas braden. >> rick: he loves the o's the wrong way, though. that's his second best e.r.a. again the oriole, 1.33 in 2007. he has been really tough on the o's. quality pitching, yes but not quantity. he is another guy who has own given up one time over three earned runs per game. he has the stuff but he can't go more than six innings. that's puts a lot of pressure on the bullpen. another one of those guys who gets to that 100-pitch mark around the 6th inning and he has to be taken o

i'm the president of the federalist society dallas chapter. i'm glad you're able to join me for what is a timely and i hope you'll agree interesting event. the generalties for this event was -- the genesis for this event was the may 1 announce by justice souter, or as i call him, the justice who should have been edith jones, that he was going to resign from the court. he's been serving since 1990, that means the fourth-longest serving justice. lifetime tenure is literal. that drives home how important the members of the court are. and when on may 26, president obama nominated judge sotomayor from the second circuit court of appeals to replace him on the supreme court without -- that really gave us focus as to what exactly a justice sotomayor might be like, what the confirmation process for her will be like and what this would mean for the future of the court. fortunately, we have with us a guest from -- who is in from washington who is more than qualified to talk about all those subjects. i'm proud to be able to introduce to you the honorable

. >> rob: castillo and dallas buck? that is gist off the -- just off the top of my head. >> johnny: it is also incorrect. [laughter]. >> johnny: off the top of my head, let me see here. >> rob: i think dallas buck was a right-handed pitcher. and i think owings is a right-handed pitcher. i have watched him for five innings. >> johnny: beats me. >> rob: castillo i think was a catcher. ramon castillo? >> johnny: it is up to you, dibs. grounded to guzman at short. across the diamond, nice play. >> rob: very nice. >> johnny: throws out the lead-off batter in the 6th inning, ramon hernandez. >> rob: the first thing is you have got to catch it. you know you don't have a fast runner coming down 1st base and he throws it towards first. ramon hernandez, had a frustrating series. >> johnny: so, hernandez is retired. jay bruce as we look at it once again out by a couple of steps. >> rob: wilkin castro and dallas buck, micah owings. i apologize. >> johnny: so, there's two down in the 6th inning here as the answer to the aflac trivia

a day later the "dallas morning news" reported that f.b.i. special agent laura burns testified during the holy land foundation case that care, quote, was formed in the aftermath of the 1993 meeting by palestinian activists in america who brain stormed ways to spread pro-hamas message here without attracting too much attention. a department of justice press release issued on november 24, 2008, when the holy land foundation verdicts came down, stated similarly, quote, the government's case included testimony that in the early 1990's hamas' parent organization, the muslim brotherhood, planned to establish a network of organizations in the u.s. to spread a militant islamist message and to raise money for hamas. holy land foundation became the chief fundraising arm for the palestine committee in the u.s. created by the muslim brotherhood to support hamas. according to a wiretap of a 1993 palestinian committee meeting in philadelphia, former holly land foundation president and c.e.o. spoke about playing down hamas ties in order to keep raising mone

dallas braden comes in at 4-5 on the season, 3.47 e.r.a. aubrey huff struck out in the first inning. interesting that the a's do not the shift against aubrey huff at all. third baseman and shortstop moving a couple of stems. shallow left centerfield. shortstop, cabrera, and he's got t one away here in the 4th inning. nick markakis, adam jones, both in the running for starting positions in the american league and all-star game. vote for your favorite orioles at orioles.com. vote for your favorite bird, the maximum 25 times. you gate free upper reserved seat to any prime non-o's -- to any o's non-prime games. orioles bats have just gone quiet after they just were explosive. that one will be fouled off. through the first couple of months. entering june, it quieted down. the books are being written, the baseball books that go to the pitchers, stories on what the orioles hitters are doing at the plate. >> buck: baseball is all about adjustments and the hitters will have count act those adjustments. you can blame it on the quality of the pitching

my name is dan mornoff, president of the dallas chapter of the federalist society. i'm glad you've been able to join us for what i think and certainly hope you'll agree is a timely and well, i hope you agree interesting event. the genesis for this event was may 1 announcement by justice souter, or as i like to call him, the jus tits who should have been edith jones, that he's resigning if the supreme court. he's been serving since 1990. that makes him the fourth longest serving member of the current court, which helps to drive home that in this particular job, the expression lifetime tenure is often literal. that does also draw home how important the members of the court are and when on may 26, president obama nominated judge sotomayor from the second circuit exeal to -- court of appeals to replace him on the supreme court that gave us some focus as to what exactly a justice sotomayor might be like, what the confirmation process for her would be like and what this would mean for the future of the court. fortunately, we have with us a guest who is in from washington

on the mound, all dallas braden. he has tied his career high with 7 strikeouts here tonight. great combination of fastballs, change-ups and breaking balls to really shut down the orioles offensively. >> gary: he has done that. no runs, 4 hits, no errors for the 0's. 9-10-1 for oakland. >. aubrey huff will lead it off for the o's. he has a couple of homeruns here. pitch taken for a strike. braden dealing. he has not given the orioles hitters many fat pitches to go after. he has been on 0 the corners and has kept the ball down. here is the 2-1 delivery. that will be fouled off. bobby crosby there at first base, came on as a defensive replacement. giambi out of the ballgame and crosby getting a chance at first. and in the bullpen. braden working here notice 72nd inning, a 4-hit shutout. 2 balls, 2 strikes count to huff. popped him up. behind the mound. cabrera the shortstop and one away. one down notice 7th. on try day, one of the most popular oriole park promotion is back. it's the first 25,000 fans, 21 and over, you will receive an oriole floppy hat which features the logo on

my wife was a schoolteacher here in dallas. they have laid off the time of schoolteachers even with tenure. -- they have laid off a lot of schoolteachers even with tenure. the older they are, the less chance there is to get work. my son is the same way. i would like to ask obama face- to-face about the change that we can count on. what about the changes going to bring? what about the jobs he's going to bring back from overseas? he is doing none of that. as a career military officer, i am in constant contact with people in washington. they tell me it is a bunch of smoke. i will hang up and listen to the answer. i think that obama needs to keep his word and not lie to the american people. host: our job is to hear from you and not give answers from our point of view. the president is at the former concentration camp that was part of the nazi regime that killed part of the estimated 6.5 million people during world war ii. he will travel to commemorate d- day in the invasion that took place in june of 1944. arthur is next from fort

, robert, and also a good friend and someone that -- with whom i have worked also in dallas and in texas. so we have a lot of interest here and i look forward to hearing from the witnesses and it's a very distinguished panel. thank you very much, mr. chairman. >> we made a decision before that because of the size and the quality of the witnesses here today we would forgo additional opening statements and we'll try to deal with this expeditiously and have just five-minute rounds or six-minute rounds maybe to give just an extra minute for use as the members see it. i'd like to introduce the witness panel. a good friend and governor ed rendell of pennsylvania. just like the people of new jersey, our neighbors in pennsylvania rely on trains on a daily basis. governor rendell has been a vigorous advocate for passenger rail and i recall clearly his satisfaction, but his energy in getting a new rail link between philadelphia and harrisburg and it met with almost immediate success and that's the kind of story we expect to see constantly. the honorable joseph sabo, the f.r.a. administeror. this i

in the dallas-fort worth market, the percentage has gone from 10% in january until about six% now. one thing that we have found is that the homes that are not ready are in areas of vulnerable populations, the elderly, low- income families, minorities, and families whose first language are not english. they are the hardest to reach and we have been concentrating on outreach efforts in those groups. we have made substantial progress since february. >> so, your call centers will be bilingual? >> yes. we have the ability to refer calls to a translator service where they can handle 100 languages. if we get calls and hungarian, we can handle those -- if we get calls and hon gary, we can handle those. -- if we get calls in hungarian, we can handle those. only about 50% of the population has been substantially affected by the transition, so far. there is no question what remains for june 12 will be the better way than we will prepare so that people who have not already prepared will know what to do. >> we went to one of the stations that had not prepared. it is a public station here in was

but what i did do was moved in with my sister so i could declare residency and i went to the dallas county hospital and tried to get tlep. you get on a waiting list for a mastectomy and three or four times i went there and they lost my medical records and said, why are you here. i'm here, i have cancer. i need a mastectomy. and they said we'll put you on the waiting list. i believe my name still wouldn't be on the waiting list. they never even contacted me back. i'm thankful to say in trying to get help windy going to county hospitals and applying to county hospitals, mr. barton got my insurance reinstated and i got the original doctor. >> and i appreciate that. i believe in continuity of care and believe that that's important. again, the other aspect does not really be a part of the discussion today but it's part of the broader discussion as we talk about strategies for the future. i want to thank every one of you for being here today. ms. horton, i didn't get to you. it's not that i was afraid but i didn't have an opportunity. thank you for your testimony. it was all very important today

also a good friend and someone i worked with in dallas and texas. we have a lot of interest and i look forward to hearing from the witnesses and it is a distinguished panel. thank you, mr. chairman. >> we made a decision, because of the size and quality of the witnesses today, we would forgo additional opening statements. we will try to deal with this expeditiously and have 5 minute or 6 minute rounds for use as members, and i want to introduce the witness now, a good friend, governor ed rendell of pennsylvania. just like the people of new jersey, neighbors from pennsylvania rely on trains on a daily basis. gov. rendell has been big advocate for passenger rail and i recall clearly his satisfaction, but his energy in getting a new rail link between philadelphia and harrisburg, met with almost immediate success and those are the stories we expect to see constantly. the hon. joseph szabo, the f r a administrator, this is the first time you have been before this committee since your confirmation. we are looking forward to hearing your work in developing

when i open an e-mail for the new dallas cowboys stadium that is in my congressional district, i don't expect to begin receiving unsolicited ads for airline tickets to the dallas-fort worth area or hotels also in my district in arlington, texas. it's obvious that people track what i do and where i go. and try to take advantage of that. fortunately, technology has come quite a ways in protecting individuals. we started looking at the spy wear problem back in the 107th congress. and thanks to the work of among others congressman mariano mac, ed towns, chairman dingle, those spy wear infections are not near the problem that they used to be. however, today companies continue to gather, maintain and use data to a variety of technological methods. some of those companies such as verizon and comcast are large companies. they're regulated in some parts of their business model. and i think they are trying to act appropriately. there are other companies, so-called isp low cadeers, that we don't -- locaters that i personally don't even know their name. then you have the in between companies, the

i like the east coast we don't have regular service between houston and dallas today so to develop one we need to make sure we are building a system which can be priced so we can compete with automobiles and aircraft and also to keep them operational system. i do think bringing the discipline of the marketplace to the system can help set up their schedule and construction, you know, the technology that will make sense and would be viable for the long term of the state. >> let me ask mr. szabo. i'm looking at a map basically and track system with a high speed corridors that have been designated, the 11 that have been designated in the darker red. is this the beginning of a planned system that those are investments that are already being made? and do you favor the ones that are already in the amtrak system being upgraded to high speed, or are you looking at other factors like a new high-speed rail project that might feed into amtrak, and therefore enhance amtrak's capabilities? >> one of the next steps that we absolutely must take is the development of a national rail plan. when i say th

in the dallas/ft. worth market part of which is in the congressman's district, the unready percentage has gone from about 10 percent in january to about 6 percent now, and that reflects in part that it's a very diverse district. the unready homes are disproportionately in areas of vulnerable populations, the elderly, low-income families, minorities, families whose first language is not english. they're the hardest to reach, and what we've been concentrating our outreach efforts on those groups, and i think with each of those groups we've made substantial progress. >> host: so your call centers would be bilingual? >> guest: yes. we also have the ability to refer calls to a translator service where they can handle 100 languages, so if we get calls in hungarian, we'll be able to handle them. >> host: congressman says half the nation has already gone digital and there haven't been any problems. >> guest: that's a good thing because the tidal wave on june 12th will be smaller, but they tended to be smaller

university of dallas, i don't know. but i would think the 9/11 project would be something that could really touch people's hearts. and get them interest and involved. it just depends on what the real -- i mean, you can't -- you bring somebody to speak on healthcare, it isn't going to work probably. as big a deal as it is in our country and as much i wish that it got college students enthusiastic so far we haven't found that it does. find that issue that is really the hot topic. maybe it's multiculturism. maybe it's political correctness. i would bring in somebody -- do you all have a women's studies center or something along those lines? >> no. >> you don't. >> you're doing super. you're like the one school in the country. i would look at something that your school is doing that's just a little bit off and make a big deal on out of it. and for those of you who do have women study centers bring in somebody to talk about starting up a male study center. that really gets things geared up and there are groups -- there are g

statistically, the dallas-fort worth area is one of the more unprepared. i think there is still around 4.5% according to nielsen and the fcc that are not ready but i think in the greatest texas tradition they are waiting until the last moment and the day before they will go out and get their converter box and they will be okay the day off. >> as a member of congress or all members of congress do you think you will bear the brunt if people are not prepared and their tvs to all work on june 12? >> i don't think there will be much brought to bear by was the chairman when we put it in place and i am prowled we put a hard date and the date is already a right to and while it slipped a little bit it hasn't slipped all that much and i think the country will be much better off once we get through the transition. there will be a lot of spectrum that goes to the first responders and new telecommunication technologies and of course your picture will be sharper, brighter, the spectrum that is used for over the air television will be much better utilized. >> speaking of

well and focusing on my cancer eye focused on trying to get treatment and i went to every hospital in dallas. i went to county hospitals, i went to fort worth, i went everywhere and i don't know how to fix it. all leno is there's something terribly wrong with the healthcare system because when you go to the big hospitals and there's so many people waiting for help, i went to all of the clinics and set with all the people. i can't imagine how many people are waiting for help. you spend hours and hours. you probably spend the whole day trying to see a doctor. i did that for weeks. i never got help, so the best thing about that is when you go to to run hospitals they give you different opinions. every time i went to a different hospital mike tambor was a different size. every time i went to another hospital one person one to do one thing in one person wanted to another and you get a different diagnosis and a difference in treatment plants for guhu do you know to listen to? i don't know how to fix that battalino is when you have to go through this and like everyone of us has been through what we

the "dallas morning news," september 6: "the travel promotion act is a sensible first step toward putting the welcome mat back on america's doorstep. the orlando sentinel "charging travelers $10 on promotion to bring in all that money makes sense." "detroit free press," september 5, 2008, "doesn't it make sense to encourage at no cost to taxpayers foreign visiters to come here and leave some money? there's no good reason not to pass this bill." and finally, i leave the best to last, the "duluth news tribune," duluth, minnesota, may 18, 2009: "ideas to bolster economic recovery without plunging the nation any deeper into debt would be welcome by taxpayers from coast to coast." that is what we're talking about here, and i know firsthand how important it is, tourism, for the city of duluth t. had some very difficult economic times in the 1970's and 1980's. at one point it was so bad that there was a bill board that someone put up outside duluth said, "the last one to leave, please turn off the lights." that's what they were dealing w. and they bolstered their economy through tourism. i was j

good morning to roger on our independent line from dallas. caller: this is a failure of foreign policy by obama. when president bush was in office the democrats blamed all of our troubles with north korea on him. president obama suggested that he would be able to get along with troublesome countries better than bush did, but he has not. the north koreans are being very disrespectful to the united states. they are testing nuclear weapons, firing missiles. now the have kidnapped reporters. they are really challenging obama and making him look weak. host: on the nuclear issue here is a story in "the boston globe" about uranium. obama seeks a global uranium fuel bank. the plan would counter runs withiiran's weapon quest. it is part of a strategy to stop iran from obtaining nuclear weapons -- president obama plans to seek the creation of the first-ever international supply of uranium that would allow patients to obtain fuel for civilian nuclear reactors to limit the capacity to make bombs. "the new york times" has a story about "the boston globe"

host: the next call is from dallas, texas. caller: good morning. i think that we should withdraw and get out of there because it was under false pretenses. my prayers and thoughts are with the young men and women who are fighting force over there. although i am the working poor i thank the president for the races he has given to the working poor since he has been in office. by his generosity i have been searching the web to help the military families with some money. then not only need our prayers to get out of there -- it is not just the president will, but there are other people. the iraqi government wants us out of there. we should honor that. host: a couple of e-mails from arkansas. also, here is a comment from new hampshire. more of your calls. jonathan from spokane, washington, good morning. caller: i just wanted to say -- i served over in iraq in 2006, 2007 and the navy or marine corps. while many are quick to point out that the president made mistakes and that politicians make mistakes, i believe it is only fair to stand by and listen to wh

point is that of which they showed of all the rejected ballots, the party showed 650 of all of the dallas presented to this court. that is voter registration. that is not all the other requirements that appellants now have complaints about. this is the most fundamental requirement which is that the person be registered. 351 were opened and counted of that number. so 299. the margin separating the two canada's is 312. even if every one of those 300 or so ballots -- it does not mean the certificate was properly completed, but at least registered, even if all 300 of these were for the appellant and even if all 300 met all of the other requirements, it would still be impossible for them to make the difference. since the jurisdiction of this court is to determine who received the most wobbly pass did ballots, the question answers itself. mr. franken received more legally cast ballots then norm coleman. >> were any illegally cast absentee ballots counted and included in the vote toal? >> there is nothing in the record identifying a specific ballot that was in the total. i think it is fair to sa

johnny is on the phone from dallas. good morning on the independent line. caller: good morning. you keep saying, "look forward, don't look back." a man said that his family was killed at gunpoint when he was a child. here is your problem. you want people to look forward, but you never want to fix your past problems. how can you go forward if the past keeps getting in the way? guest: there has been a lot of suffering here on all sides. the israelis feel that for the last 60 years, there has been a lot of terrorism. the palestinians feel the trauma of 1948 and the trauma of israeli occupation. each side has grievances. i am not saying forget about the past. of course we have to remember the past. i think we cannot just wallow in the past. if we allow each side to just focus on their own agreements, we will not solve the problem. we have to do what we can to say we recognize the past, but we have to move forward in creating hope for both. host: let me pick up on that point. danielle pletka has a piece in "the washington post" this morning.
