7:49 am
in charge of the white house, you shrug your shoulders and say it doesn't meet your expectations. that's what we saw last night. i think the one thing i never would have predicted to be in the speech was the increase in minimum wage the president talked about at $9 at the federal level. the states have different minimum wages. but that was sort of out of left field. certainly the president in the opening sound bite you just placed talking about how his plans would not raise the deficit one single dime. a lot of republicans joking but somewhat serious saying maybe just raise it a couple trillion dimes. a lot of gop lawmakers, they sense the answer is, higher taxes to some things. >> the discussion of gun control. there was a pretty emotional appeal on that issue the president made. let's listen to that sound bite and get your reaction. >> gabrielle giffords deserves

[ cheers ] >> is that gonna change anything, do you hink -- think. >> he was not saying you have to approve my legislation. he was saying you have to give it a vote. i think the white house and the democrats, they probably behind the scenes decided that if they can just ask for that vote, they can create a little momentum. let's be frank about this. at this point in time, there's not enough votes in the senate to approve an assault weapons ban. the issue of the background checks, that's up in the air as
7:51 am
is the issue of limits on the size of ammunition magazines. i think what the white house strategy is, if they can get it to the floor of the senate, then they open to put a little heat on lawmakers who might be wavering and undecided. opponents of gun control after the speech simply saying the president's remarks didn't make a difference but it's obvious he's gonna carry this fight over the heads of lawmakers into the people. >> final question, about the republican response. marco rubio giving the response. do you think anyone was able to hear the message after that awkward moment where he reached to get a bottle of water? >> reporter: when you do tv, you probably don't want to take a swig of water on the air. i guess i've learned over the air, it was funny because i saw rubio about two hours before doing a dry run. he looked completely relaxed but at the moment, that took away from it. still, the message was there
7:52 am
for republicans. democrats simply are in favor of big government and they are addicted to taxes, is when you basically boil it down. in the end, it may be one of those things we may not remember for very long. and rubio laughing it off. >> you can find a link to jamie's blog on our website. just go to ktvu.com. pull down the news men knew bar and go to our -- menu bar and go to our politics page. the cruise ship that became stranded in the gulf of mexico is now being towed to mobile, alabama. the carnival triumph should be docking by tomorrow afternoon. cruise line will pay the cost to fly the 4,000 passengers back to houston. the carnival says until then, the top priority, keeping everybody safe and comfortable. but some passengers are sending text messages to relatives that say carnival cruise line does not seem to be able to do that. >> "stuck in the middle of the

8:01 am
8:02 am
welcome back. i'm tori campbell. >> i'm dave clark. the week-long manhunt for christopher dorner is over. the investigation still very active. this morning los angeles police are holding a news conference. they are at parker center at police headquarters. we're watching it live and there's a spokesman there. let's listen in. >> in any kind of celebration, this really is not a celebration. it's been a very trying time for over the last couple of weeks for all of those involved and all of those families, friends and everybody that's been touched by this dorner incident. so again, i just would like to
8:03 am
express our deepest sympathy from our department and our hearts and prayers go out to those family and friends to those deputies injured and the deputy that was killed yesterday. with that, let meet just give you some brief -- bring you up to date. the investigation into the dorner incidents and the homicides related to christopher dorner continue. and that will continue until the investigators have completed everything they need to do related to that. the task force is still in place. and they will work until there's nothing left to be done. there's still quite a bit of work to be done on this. what transpired in san bernardino is being investigated by the san bernardino county sheriff's department. and so i have no comments on their investigation at this time. i can tell you that the
8:04 am
l.a.p.d. has now moved back into a normal state of police operation. that begun late last night and will continue now as far as normal patrol operations. the protective details, some of those are still in place and those will remain in place until the department and those protectees feel safe. as you know, until that investigation in san bernardino is concluded and we have any type of positive identification on what transpired up there, we still have some individuals in this department who are still in great fear. when your life -- when the lives of your family are placed in jeopardy and threatened with death, that's quite something to deal with. we have approximately a dozen or so of those protected details will replain in place at this point.
8:05 am
all other resources have been returned to their normal functions. the city has not been on any type of tactical alert since early yesterday morning and we will remain in that state tis until further. so at this time, that's about all i have in terms of the investigation. if there are some questions related to the dorner investigation that i'm able to answer -- again, i'm not able to comment on anything related to san bernardino. [the question is inaudible] >> bell, again, we have -- well, again, we have homicide investigations. you know, the fact that the incident transpired yesterday and, you know, we won't won't speculate at this time whether that is christopher dorner or not, but even if it was to be christopher dorner, again, we have a case to close. just because arrest warrants were issued and charges were filed in riverside, there's still a case pending in irvine, the double homicide.
8:06 am
there's still much work to be done. we just don't stop an investigation because the suspected individual may no longer be available. [the question is inaudible] >> i'm -- say that again. >> how long will it take to identify the body found? >> yeah. again, that will depend on the condition of the body that's recovered. it will depend on the forensics available in the laboratories, i will not make any assumptions right now. but again, those types of identifications can be expedited in these types of circumstances. i'm sure everything will be done to do that. [the question is inaudible] >> right now, this is a san bernardino case. the incident that occurred up there, involving the shooting and the body that was discovered will be up --
8:07 am
announced by the san bernardino county sheriffs. [the question is inaudible] >> that will be determined by the city attorneys that are involved. the issuance of a reward is for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of an individual. this is sort of an unusual circumstance. certainly, there was information that was provided that was very beneficial yesterday and that will be examined and evaluated by the people who deal with the rewards. the los angeles police department does not issue rewards. so we're not in the reward business. those are outside entities that issue those rewards in an effort to support the investigation. >> beyond the emotional -- >> we've been listening live to a news conference by the los angeles police department, the very latest on the christopher dorner case. among other things, the investigation continues.
8:08 am
it's not over. it's far from over, including an open-ended homicide investigation, a task force still in place, they will be in place for the time being. the l.a.p.d. itself is returning to a normal operation and they also say that some people who may have been targeted by christopher dorner, they are still being protected out of fear about a dozen people are still being protected. they still have not identified the remains inside that burned cabin up there in big bear. this is still a continuing investigation. make sure you stay right here with ktvu and, of course, ktvu.com for all of the latest information on the christopher dorner investigation. now, ktvu's brian flores is monitoring that news conference. he's in our newsroom right now. and brian, there's more on this situation that you will bring on this. now, we're also following developing news coming from contra costa county. a police officer and a suspect were wounded in a late-night

1. Highlight and Underline Text
Always try to highlight or underline text in textbooks and notes. This will make sure that the important information stands out.

Organising your study into 20 or 30 minute sessions with a 5 or 10 minute break in between will give your brain time to take in and store what has just been learned.

Marlins' Meyer a Better Closer Than Kyra Sedgwick
Wally Pipp was a good player and the first Yankee to ever win a home run title. One day in 1925, the New York manager benched Pipp and other veterans to shake up a slumping lineup and replaced the first baseman with a young Lou Gehrig. Gehrig never relinquished the position, playing 2,130 consecutive games in 14 years after that fateful substitution.
The Marlins currently have a Pipp/Gehrig situation in their bullpen due to Matt Lindstrom's injury and Dan Meyer's success. While Meyer won't have the Hall of Fame career of Gehrig, he can have a major impact as the de facto closer for the next month especially with the bullpen resembling a M.A.S.H. unit.
Lindstrom's struggles have been documented, but his injury saves the Marlins from canning him from the closer's role and destroying his confidence. However, Leo Nunez, who should have had the job all along, turned his ankle recently and Kiko Calero is on the disabled list with shoulder inflammation.
The injuries leave the left-handed Meyer as the best option to close games. Typically, managers are hesitant to have left-handed closers because opposing teams will try to pinch-hit with a slew of righties, but Meyer actually has better success against right-handed batters. Averaging nearly a strikeout per inning and keeping hitters to a .167 batting average, Meyer possesses a 2.03 earned run average, more than four runs lower than Lindstrom's.

The Marlins are kicking the tires on a few relievers around the league such as LaTroy Hawkins, George Sherrill, and Luis Ayala, according to the Miami Herald. Bolstering the bullpen is always a good idea, but Meyer's dominance should earn him the chance to be the first in line to close games.
Meyer needed only 11 pitches to record the first save of his career Wednesday night and even touched 94 miles per hour with his fastball en route to retiring the Orioles' side in order.
There is a silver lining in every rain cloud that hovers over LandShark Stadium. The rash of injuries in the Marlins' pen has just opened the door for Dan Meyer to dominate the ninth inning.
