Chris Lawrence Reports on the Repairs to Port-au-Prince Seaport

As everyone who has been following CNN's Haiti coverage knows aid is very, very slow to reach Port-au-Prince and other cities affected by the earthquake. Chris Lawrence was at the shipping port yesterday to see what progress has been made in restoring it to functionality and how that will help relief efforts.

Prayers Amid Agony and Anguish

Chris Lawrence reported from Port-au-Prince, Haiti on the challenges Haiti's earthquake victims faced to attend worship services today. Here's Chris' report.



And when asked to give to those who had nothing, almost everyone came forward, even the children, and gave something out of what little they had.

Boots on the Ground

During Saturday's The Situation Room, Nic Robertson and Chris Lawrence take a look at what the conditions are for the Marines going into Helmand province and why the assault started now, during the heat of summer:



I was trying to add a video of Atia Abawi from the 4th of July festivities at Baghram AFB in Afghanistan, but Blogger isn't cooperating and the video was not uploaded to CNN.com. Sorry!

What I do have from the 4th: Michael Ware travelled to FOB Hammer near the Iranian border to spend the holiday with the troops. The sandstorm still swirls, but the "lads" played softball anyway!


And Tommy Evans did a a report on the game for BackStory that has been uploaded to the video page:


(Oh, and ... Happy [Belated] Birthday to Tommy, who turned 32 on Sunday.)

CNN Coverage Plans for Michael Jackson’s Memorial

CNN will broadcast Michael Jackson’s memorial service live on Tuesday, July 7, 2009, on CNN, CNN International and CNN.com. Web users will also be able to share thoughts with others on Facebook while viewing the events on the CNN.com live video player if they choose.

Anderson Cooper, Larry King, Don Lemon and Soledad O’Brien will host coverage live from Los Angeles, with Campbell Brown and Roland Martin anchoring live from New York, starting at 12:00 p.m. (ET) on CNN/U.S. and CNN International. CNN’s international bureaus will provide coverage of memorial events happening around the world. Kiran Chetry will anchor American Morning beginning at 6:00 a.m. (ET) live from Los Angeles.

Robin Meade, A.J. Hammer and Jane Velez-Mitchell will anchor live coverage for HLN, driven by perspectives on and analysis of the day's developments.

CNN en Español will offer live coverage with Juan Carlos Arciniegas from Los Angeles and will then air a wrap-up special at 9:00 p.m. (ET) on Panorama Mundial anchored by Patricia Janiot.

Online at www.CNN.com/MichaelJackson, CNN.com will provide special coverage of Jackson’s memorial service and all related events in their entirety through a wide variety of elements, including live streaming and on-demand video, in-depth articles, photo galleries, and special interactives. In addition, CNN.com producers and correspondents will blog live from Los Angeles throughout the day.

CNN.com is once again utilizing Facebook Connect granting Internet users across the globe the ability to watch the memorial service live while communicating with their Friends on Facebook – and other Jackson fans around the world – without leaving the CNN.com Live video player. CNN.com Live begins live coverage starting at 8:30 a.m. (ET) with a special noon show before the complete live coverage of the memorial service begins at 1 p.m. (ET.) Additionally, CNN.com will offer replays of the entire memorial service at 4 p.m. (ET) and 7 p.m. (ET.) iReport.com, the network’s user-generated online news community, continues to invite contributors to share their thoughts and memories of Michael Jackson, as well as submit and share their videos and photos.
We were also asked to make sure everyone knew about this:

CNN will be airing Michael Jackson: The Memorial tomorrow (Tuesday July 7, 2009 @ Noon ET) on the life and legacy of the one and only King of Pop! Tune-in and log on to Facebook as CNN hosts a LIVE video partnership with Facebook, so fans around the world can share their memories in real-time.

That's it for me today.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Monday, Reza Aslan spoke to Roland Martin about President Obama's outreach to Muslims worldwide:


Tuesday morning, Reza spoke to Carol Costello about the new image America has abroad:


On the way back to the US, Obama made a "surprise" stop in Iraq. At 11amET, Tony Harris spoke with Frederik Pleitgen in the Baghdad bureau:


Wolf Blitzer introduced a piece from Chris Lawrence about Obama's trip to Iraq; the piece includes comments from Fawas Gerges:


Wednesday morning, former Time magazine Baghdad Bureau Chief Bobby Ghosh appeared on American Morning and told Kiran Chetry that he thought Obama should have skipped Iraq and visited Afghanistan instead:


Within a few hours, the president was home in DC and reporters were scrambling to cover a new story -- Somali pirates had seized a ship flying the American flag. Fredericka Whitfield spoke with Nic Robertson, who got to visit the roof in London for a change of scenery:

CIA: Cuba, Iraq, Afghanistan


Blogger is being grouchy again today...

Havana Bureau Chief Morgan Neill got a chance to do some man-on-the-street interviews Thursday as Cubans react to the lifting of travel restrictions for Americans:


Paula Newton reports on the Taliban attacks in Kabul:


And on TSR, the continued threat of acid-throwing attacks on schoolgirls:


Meanwhile, in Baghdad Nic Robertson reported on Tuesday's suicide blast:


And Chris Lawrence covered Pentagon concerns that attacks are once again rising in Iraq:


Friday, Nic reported on the verdict for the Iraqi journalist convicted of throwing his shoes at then-President Bush:


And John King previewed one of the pieces he'll have on State of the Union this Sunday: an Iraq war veteran whom John first interviewed just prior to his third deployment. (And don't be frightened by the photo at the end of the piece; it's just a graphic promo for John's interview with the former VP this week. Why they use a pic of Cheney smiling is beyond me!)


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


Where in the World...?

Monday Warzone Updates


Nic Robertson is doing a rotation in the Baghdad bureau, and this morning he spoke with John Roberts about whether Iraq is stable enough to start the drawdown of American (and Brit) troops. It's sandstorm season in Baghdad, as you can see from the yellow sky:


Barbara Starr had an interesting report about two generals who have spoken out about getting treatment for PTSD in the hopes of removing some of the stigma the military still wrestles with. Personally, I'd be a lot more worried about someone who witnessed battle and its aftermath and had NO problems coping with it... and it is well past time that we got our troops the help they need:


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Last Tuesday, Paula Newton reported from Kabul on the difficulties facing troops in Afghanistan:


And on Friday, Chris Lawrence took a look at a new Rand Corporation report on the failures of intelligence-gathering in Afghanistan. I love Gary Berntsen's comment about "Pashtunistan" ... and it certainly is astonishing that we still are not training interpreters in that language:


This morning John spoke with Berntsen about the idea of trying to split off some Taliban fighters to turn against al Qaeda, a strategy that worked in Iraq:


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Also last Tuesday, Stan Grant reported from the site in Lahore where a deadly attack was launched against the visiting cricket team from Sri Lanka. Footage from news cameras shows the actual attack as it took place:


Immediately following Stan's report, Wolf Blitzer spoke with Fareed Zakaria about concerns over the security of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal:


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Finally, Michael Ware was on from New York this morning to discuss concerns that a terrorist group such as Hezbollah might use the Mexican drug cartel wars as a way of establishing a base close to our border:


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

A couple of events happening Tuesday:
* Campbell Brown will host the "Wonder Women & Women to Watch" Luncheon, held at the Hilton in NY.
* Ed Henry will be the keynote speaker at FOSE 2009, in Washington D.C.

And that's a wrap for me!

The Pentagon, Kyrgyzstan, Iraq, the VA, and the UAE


Pentagon Correspondent Barbara Starr reported Wednesday on a wrinkle in our plans for the war in Afghanistan -- and it's about a base in the country of Kyrgyzstan. It's a former Russian "breakaway" country and Putin wants it back. And he's willing to pay them enough money to evict us:


Chris Lawrence, who is now another Pentagon Correspondent, took a look at a report on waste in the Iraqi reconstruction budget:


Chris also reported on the newly appointed head of the VA, former General Eric Shinseki, and his aim to increase help for our many wounded veterans and their families:


If you're looking to get away from all the dismal economic problems here in the US, check this out first -- Stan Grant filed this report on Aussie expats in the UAE whose jobs have been eliminated, leaving them stranded thousands of miles from home:


Finally, on yesterday's Fareed Zakaria GPS, Michael Ware took part in a panel discussion about the recent election in Iraq:


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

One calendar note: David Gergen will discuss the many challenges facing the new president at 6 p.m. Feb. 10 in Wait Chapel at Wake Forest University.

That's it for me this week!

Gustav: Monday pt 2


We're trying to make sure we get clips of everyone on the CNN "team" down in the Gulf Coast... poor, wet, crazy folks that they are! Wish we could also give shout-outs to all of their crews, as well, but I guess they will just have to tell their families who they were out there with!

Yesterday afternoon around 5:30 ET, Gary Tuchman appeared from their stand-up across from City Hall. Wolf asked him to comment on their safety:


7:30 this morning, Dr. Sanjay Gupta from Tulane University Hospital:


10 a.m., Rob Marciano is up on the roof of the Omni Hotel in the French Quarter:


11 a.m., Chris Lawrence in the northern part of the city, where flooding is happening:


12:45, Rob is still on that rooftop (hope he's wearing lead boots!):


1 p.m., and Don Lemon is in Jefferson Parish and talks to Susan Candiotti in Gulfport, Mississippi:


3:15, Chris Lawrence near the Industrial Canal, where we can see for ourselves how well these levees have been built:



Also, from Sapphire... Don Lemon gives a shout-out to his family:


...and Brian Todd in Baton Rouge:


Here's hoping the levees hold and that everyone gets to dry out soon!

Beauty, Brains and Chris Lawrence!

As I was considering who or what deserved my undivided attention for this week's stellar blog entry I could not resist a little Youtube fun with CNN hottie Nicole Lapin.





I do not use the term 'hottie' often when it comes to women, but Nicole has been officially given the moniker by Maxim magazine.
(right click on picture to enlarge)
Which got me to thinking....didn't Maxim miss a few great looking CNN women? I'm thinking Kyra Phillips, Betty Nguyen, Abbie Boudreau, Brianna Keilar, Susan Roesgen, Zain Verjee and Erica Hill should have made the list...just to name a few. Fox News has nothing on CNN when it comes to beauty and brains.



Speaking of good looks and brains did you catch Chris Lawrence's first installment in CNN's tour of six historically Black Colleges and Universities? It aired on Tuesday from Florida A&M University. The next stop on the HBCU tour is North Carolina Central on Thursday, April 10.
CNN has also launched a Campus iReporter contest in association with the Black in America tour at each of the six HBCU schools. CNN, together with the National Association of Black Journalists, will choose one Campus iReporter from FAMU, whose prize will be a digital video camera. The winner from each school will also be able to submit additional footage from their Black in America campus stop to win the grand prize: a trip for two to the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans over the Fourth of July weekend.
The HBCU tour will include a trailer outfitted with a jumbo television screen, along with video kiosks, where participants can submit their video response to a programming-related question via iReport. There will be live DJs, text-message polling, a graffiti wall and electronic polling stations using questions from a CNN/Essence Magazine/Opinion Research Corporation poll. Exclusive video previews from upcoming Black in America programming will also be featured. CNN, Essence Communications and Comcast will all have representatives and giveaways on site.
For more information, please visit CNN.com’s interactive special section.

We're a bit off schedule this week, sometimes it just happens. Please check back tomorrow for 'Ratings at a Glance'.
I'm off next week and I'm pleased to say ATA's master researcher Quitty will be posting in my absense.

Enjoy your day and I'll see you back here on the 23rd.~Phebe

Where Can I See Them This Week?

CNN journalists and contributors are popping up all over the place this week. Here are a few of the scheduled non-CNN appearances.


You can see Jack Cafferty on more than just The Situation Room this week.

Monday, October 1, 2007- The Daily Show.

Thursday, October 4, 2007- The View.


Peter Bergen delivered a speech titled "Six Years After 9/11: Are We Winning the War on Terrorism?" at North Iowa Area Community College on September 13, 2007. His speech will be aired on Iowa Public Television (IPTV Plus) on Intelligent Talk TV on Thursday, October 4, 2007 at 9:00PM. IPTV posts many of their programs on their website, so if you don't live in their viewing area, but are interested in the seeing the program, it might appear on their website a few days after the initial airing.


Larry King will be the featured moderator at the Cleveland Clinic's 5th Annual Medical Innovation Summit at the InterContinental Hotel & Conference Center in Cleveland, Ohio on October 1, 2007. He will moderate a session from 2:10 - 3:40 P.M. on the State of Cardiovascular Medicine.
