. >> my name is william clark. i am a professor of neuro science and engineering which is housed in watts hall in the mcquade complex where the incident took place. i actually had taught a class a little bit down the road in evan's lab from 8:00 to 9:00. i had gone back to my office and had made coffee and just started it when our building fire alarm went off. so everybody exited the building. it turned out it was a gas leak in some equipment in one of the research laboratories, so everybody was standing outside. the columbus fire department turned up, the columbus police department i think came with them as well and firemen in full gear and breathing apparatus went in to check on this leak. after about, oh, probably 15, 20 minutes the firemen came out. that's usually a sign they've cleared the building and it is about time to go in. and i began to walk back a little bit east on west 19th towards the back entrance of watts hall there, which fronts on to that street. and as i was walking i suddenly heard a shout and

he and william clark set out on a transcontinental exploration in 1803. they built a boat right here in pittsburgh, a 55-foot boat. on the very first day of the expedition lewis took his air rifle, a 22 shot air rifle, didn't use powder or flint, and he gave a demonstration on bruno's island, the first island on the ohio river as you head west. he was an expert marksman. you put a mark on a tree and fired seven times and hit it bullseye each time. a local man said that is amazing. he pulled the rifle from his hand. it went off and shot a woman in the head. she went down, feathers from her hat flew into the air. he thought the first day of the exposition and i have already killed someone. he learned some first aid from dr. rush in philadelphia and applied direct pressure to the gushing head wound. in a few minutes he got her back on her feet. she was wobbly that she was alive. he said, boys, let's get out of here. they set off on their 8000 mile journey. the first day was a little rough but things got better. pittsburgh industry started early because pitts

joining us with mark is tom clark, portfolio manager at william blair. tom, let's just look at this deal first. i have this chart that shows options volatility. we saw fit spiking and now it is coming down a little. we have morgan stanley staying end of this news that we have the agreement, $40-50 five dollars, even if no deal. what is your view on the upside and downside for oil? the deal is quite significant, the first coordinated production cut for many years. today's announcement is the high point in that regard. the opec cartel is not so much in global production these days, about 40%. it has seen come edition as well as cooperation. they have a mutual incentive to cut production but they also have an incentive to cheat, as we have seen before. was breachedcap and this one may be as well. the impact on oil prices may not be that great from here. the other thing that is relevant is the competitiveness of shale oil in the u.s. probably comes in a focus somewhere between $55 and $65. that probably lowers overtime. we have the trump administration proba

our next soaker is professor brad clark. who is the william crans professor of law at the george washington university school of law. brad also is law clerk from the 1989 term, the same term as kristen. brad. >> thank you, paul. i clerked for justice scalia during the 1989 terms, as paul said and i'm here too represent the justice's clerks who became professors. of whom there are many. in fact, no fewer than 28 of us now teach at law schools around the country, including harvard, yale, columbia, nyu, michigan, virginia, vanderbilt, notre dame, and i could go on. at first i was surprise by how many of us chose this path. but at the risk of scaring off hiring committees that might consider scalia clerk in the the future i suspect our numbers reflect the justice's influence on us. before becoming a judge, justice scalia was a tenured law professor at both the university of virginia and the university of chicago. he loved teaching. perhaps because he loved ideas. and he understood their power. in fact, hi once toldel told me tha

. >> miguel almaguer in clark county. i want to bring in pete williams. it's relatively normal across the 50 united states to allow those who are in line at the time the poll is closing to vote. what is the -- what grounds does the trump campaign have? >> here's their claim. they say, yeah, we get that, but they say the problem here is that the county election officials made the decision way early, before the lines got long, before the time for cutoff happened, that they were going to keep the polling places in a few places open till 10:00. after saying they would close at 8:00. so, that's the first claim. and what they, in essence say is, doing this selectively was unfa unfair. that it favored voters in one precinct over another. there's a fairness question here. secondly they say as a strictly legal matter, when the county decides to create -- to extend the polling times sort of arbitrarily they're, in essence, creating a new polling place. one that now stays open from the normal closing time until later and they can't do that under law. there's only a

they're up by 6 points statewide, and almost 14-points in the clark county, where most of its voters live. this is similar to the pace that massachusetts residents cast their ballots during early voting. today, secretary of the state william galvin said a total of one million, thirty thousand people voted early in the bay state. that's on top of 140,000 absentee ballots. galvin also estimates total voting numbers will exceed three million. this is the first year of early voting in massachusetts. the justice department is sending federal election monitors to 28 states, including right here to massachusetts to enforce voting rights laws. the justice department says more than 500 monitors will be on the ground in nearly 70 jurisdictions across the country, among them quincy. however, there is no longer any federal power to mandate observers inside polling stations. local officials have the primary responsibility to respond to any issues of violence or intimidation at polling places. our special election coverage is far from over after world news tonight stay tuned for newscenter 5 at 7:

and they are filing it in clark county, nevada. here to break it down for us is pete williams. pete, we're just now hearing about this. get us up to speed and tell us what we have to know. >> this lawsuit has been filed in state court in nevada by the donald trump campaign. and what they claim is that the voting was improper on early voting day on friday, that people were allowed to vote after the polls closed. and sthee not have been. now, like many state, nevada has a law that says if are you in line when the polls close, you can still vote. all the people who were in line when the polls closed can vote. what the trump campaign krams is will that people were allowed to vote who were not about in line when the polls closed. this was a polling place in clark county, in a hispanic neighborhood. and they claim those votes shouldn't count. it's not clear what the remedy will be here, but there will be a hearing on this and i'm sure that the judge will dispose of this quite quickly. this doesn't sound to me like the kinz of case that has never come up before. this is pretty standar
