[0:00] Tonight, changing times. Churches and

[0:03] schools change their traditions as the

[0:05] CDC reports this flu is targeting the

[0:08] young.

[0:09] I'm Russ Mitchell. Also tonight, flu

[0:11] fears are driving hoarding and illegal

[0:13] online sales of Tamiflu. And health

[0:16] experts warn that could cause even more

[0:18] problems.

[0:20] Last minute talks to save the Boston

[0:22] Globe, which faces a midnight deadline

[0:24] that could stop the presses for good.

[0:27] And the campaign to rescue homeless

[0:29] horses abandoned by owners hit hard by

[0:32] the recession.

[0:33] >> I can't afford to keep her too much

[0:34] longer. She's my baby girl.

[0:42] This is the CBS Evening News with Russ

[0:46] Mitchell. And good evening. Parents and

[0:48] educators are bracing for another week

[0:50] of dealing with the H1N1 or swine flu

[0:53] virus, which the Centers for Disease

[0:55] Control today said hits teens and young

[0:57] adults the hardest.

[0:59] Almost 900 cases are now confirmed in 19

[1:02] countries with 20 deaths.

[1:04] Here at home, the CDC confirms 226 cases

[1:07] in 30 states with one death.

[1:10] Schools are just one of the institutions

[1:11] scrambling to cope with the flu threat.

[1:13] Bianca Solorzano has more.

[1:17] Worshippers at St. Mary's Catholic

[1:19] Church in Detroit, Michigan today didn't

[1:21] give the sign of peace or drink from the

[1:24] communion chalice.

[1:25] >> They asked us

[1:26] uh not to shake hands and also we took

[1:30] communion but not the wine. Churches

[1:33] across the country hoping to slow the

[1:35] spread of the H1N1 influenza virus were

[1:38] preaching a change in habits. Washing

[1:41] your hands and sanitizing them. These

[1:43] are all the sort of things I I really

[1:45] trust that my parishioners are doing.

[1:47] More than 20,000 Detroit school children

[1:49] won't be seeing each other for 2 days.

[1:51] Officials closed all 24 schools in one

[1:55] district west of the city today after a

[1:57] high school girl came down with an

[1:59] apparent flu case.

[2:01] That makes more than a 470 schools

[2:03] closed in at least 18 states stranding

[2:07] some 270,000

[2:08] children at home. Our current guidance

[2:11] for school dismissals um suggests that

[2:14] if there's a case identified in a school

[2:17] population, the authorities consider

[2:20] dismissing the students for a period of

[2:22] up to 2 weeks. In Celina, Texas, where

[2:25] schools were closed last week, officials

[2:27] opted to keep them shut. We want them to

[2:30] stay home. And when we mean home, we

[2:32] don't mean just not school. We mean home

[2:34] home. Medical anthropologist Ron Barrett

[2:37] says officials are right to err on the

[2:39] side of prudence. There was a large

[2:40] study done at the University of Michigan

[2:42] uh that showed that in 43 cities in the

[2:44] United States uh that school closures

[2:47] seem to be significantly associated with

[2:50] lesser mortality for that flu uh in

[2:52] 1918.

[2:54] To calm nerves, President Obama's health

[2:56] officials blitzed the Sunday talk shows

[2:58] this morning striking a carefully

[3:00] balanced tone. The early news seems to

[3:03] be uh cautiously optimistic about where

[3:07] we are right now. We certainly can't get

[3:09] complacent. And that's because much

[3:11] remains unknown about this virus,

[3:13] including why it seems to be attacking

[3:15] an unusual age demographic with a median

[3:18] age of 17.

[3:21] Today, US health officials said while at

[3:23] this point they are not sure why the

[3:25] older population is not being affected

[3:27] as much by the H1N1 virus, they are

[3:30] looking into whether they are protected

[3:32] by years of previous flu vaccines. Russ?

[3:35] >> Bianca Solorzano, thank you very much.

[3:37] There is more concern this evening that

[3:39] some Americans who believe they are

[3:41] taking steps to avoid the flu may

[3:43] actually be harming themselves and their

[3:45] families.

[3:46] Early Show national correspondent Hattie

[3:48] Kaufman explains.

[3:50] At pediatrician's offices, parents are

[3:54] worried.

[3:55] >> We wanted to make sure that our young

[3:57] ones are safe. Doctors like Nicole

[4:00] Normand in Los Angeles say patients are

[4:02] asking for one thing. A lot of families

[4:04] are calling and wanting a prescription

[4:06] for Tamiflu even if their kids are

[4:08] perfectly well cuz they want to have it

[4:10] just in case. The antiviral drugs

[4:12] Tamiflu and Relenza are the only known

[4:15] treatments for swine flu. The Centers

[4:17] for Disease Control says only patients

[4:19] who were exposed to the flu need

[4:21] medication. Dr. Martin Blazer of New

[4:23] York University says taking Tamiflu

[4:25] unnecessarily creates a public health

[4:28] danger.

[4:28] >> It's not a good idea to have it at home

[4:30] just in case because the more people who

[4:33] have it, the more people who use it, the

[4:34] sooner resistance will emerge. But some

[4:37] who can't get the drugs from a doctor

[4:39] are turning to the internet. Online

[4:41] pharmacy Direct Response Marketing says

[4:44] sales of Tamiflu have spiked 800% in the

[4:47] last week. AccessRx reports a 62%

[4:51] increase in sales. To buy Tamiflu in a

[4:53] pharmacy, you need a prescription.

[4:55] Online, you may not. My producer ordered

[4:58] this Tamiflu with just a few clicks of a

[5:00] mouse and a $160 charge on a credit

[5:03] card. We just typed in we had fever and

[5:05] flu, checked the informed consent

[5:07] agreement saying we consulted a doctor.

[5:10] An online doctor supposedly reviewed our

[5:12] order and approved our purchase, but no

[5:15] one called or even emailed with

[5:17] questions. A few days later, we have the

[5:20] Tamiflu in hand. The CDC says websites

[5:23] like this one are falsely claiming their

[5:25] medicines prevent swine flu. And

[5:28] reselling Tamiflu like this posting on

[5:30] Craigslist is illegal.

[5:33] Doctors warn patients should be careful

[5:35] about what they buy online because like

[5:37] all medicines, Tamiflu and Relenza have

[5:40] potential side effects. The one that

[5:42] I've experienced a couple of times with

[5:43] my patients is delirium. So it's kind of

[5:46] scary to see your kid hallucinate. And

[5:48] if you're doing that for no reason other

[5:50] than paranoia, then

[5:52] it's silly. That's why most doctors are

[5:55] refusing to prescribe the drugs unless a

[5:57] patient is sick. Hattie Kaufman, CBS

[6:00] News, Los Angeles.

[6:02] Now, a story about a true sign of the

[6:04] times. The Boston Globe, one of the

[6:07] nation's oldest newspapers, is facing

[6:09] extinction tonight, a victim of a

[6:11] dwindling readership and the bad

[6:13] economy. The Globe has been in business

[6:15] since 1872.

[6:17] And Randall Pinkston has more on the

[6:18] fights this evening to save it.

[6:22] It may be the worst deadline the Boston

[6:24] Globe ever faced with management's

[6:26] demand to cut $20 million by midnight,

[6:29] $10 million of that from the 600-member

[6:31] newspaper guild, the paper's largest

[6:33] union. Today, the guild said it was

[6:35] offering deep cuts in pay and benefits,

[6:38] which should be more than adequate to

[6:39] save the Boston Globe. Last week,

[6:42] employees tried to rally public support

[6:44] while staring down parent company New

[6:46] York Times. The New York Times, as you

[6:48] know, has threatened to shut down the

[6:50] Boston Globe. That threat is

[6:52] unacceptable. These are tough times for

[6:55] media outlets. Ad revenues in free fall.

[6:58] Newspapers and magazines losing

[6:59] subscribers at the same time they have

[7:01] to build websites where readers have

[7:03] come to expect free content. While the

[7:06] Globe struggles to survive, other papers

[7:08] have succumbed.

[7:09] This year alone, the Rocky Mountain News

[7:11] shut down in Denver, the Seattle

[7:13] Post-Intelligencer, and the Christian

[7:15] Science Monitor stopped their presses

[7:18] and are now only available on the web.

[7:20] >> This is a great American city, Athens of

[7:22] America, hub of the universe. For

[7:25] veteran reporter Shawn Murphy, the Globe

[7:27] is part of the city and nation's

[7:29] intellectual capital, as important as

[7:31] Harvard and all the other world-class

[7:33] institutions that make this city

[7:35] special.

[7:35] >> If we lose our newspaper, I think we're

[7:37] diminished here and it doesn't augur

[7:40] well for other great cities across the

[7:43] country. If the Globe closes, Boston

[7:45] will be left with one paper, the tabloid

[7:48] Boston Herald. The Globe is completely

[7:50] out of touch. It's run by Ivy Leaguers

[7:53] with trust funds, most of whom aren't

[7:55] even from New England. Howie Carr,

[7:57] conservative talk show host, reports for

[8:00] the Herald but knows his paper is not

[8:02] immune to the financial problems facing

[8:04] the Globe. If we outlast the Globe by 1

[8:06] day,

[8:07] we win.

[8:09] Even if management at the Globe reach a

[8:10] deal on the $20 million in cuts, the

[8:12] paper will still be in the red. The New

[8:14] York Times, the parent company, says the

[8:16] paper's on track to run an $85 million

[8:18] deficit this year. If the paper does

[8:20] survive, readers will be paying more.

[8:23] The price of a daily edition will go up

[8:25] from 75 cents to a dollar.

[8:27] Randall Pinkston, CBS News, Boston.

[8:31] Former Congressman and vice presidential

[8:33] hopeful Jack Kemp died last night at the

[8:36] age of 73 from cancer at his home in

[8:38] Bethesda, Maryland. Kemp's long career

[8:40] took him into battle in the halls of

[8:42] government and on the gridiron, as we

[8:45] hear from Kimberly Dozier.

[8:47] He was a star quarterback who became a

[8:49] major player for the Republican Party.

[8:53] Jack Kemp was a nine-term congressman

[8:55] from Buffalo, New York, a secretary of

[8:58] housing under the first President Bush,

[9:00] and a nominee for vice president

[9:01] alongside candidate Bob Dole. We think

[9:04] Dole and Kemp make a great team, don't

[9:07] you?

[9:08] After his four decades plus political

[9:10] career, Kemp left a record of turning

[9:12] setbacks into personal and later party

[9:15] triumph.

[9:16] He was a 17th round draft pick who went

[9:18] on to be voted most valuable player for

[9:20] the Buffalo Bills. After 18 years and a

[9:23] dozen concussions, he said all he was

[9:25] fit to do was run for political office.

[9:28] A self-proclaimed bleeding heart

[9:29] Republican, his signature issue was

[9:32] lowering taxes, helping shape President

[9:34] Ronald Reagan's 1980 tax cuts.

[9:37] He also aimed to expand the GOP to

[9:39] embrace all races.

[9:41] >> I will not

[9:43] rest until my party

[9:45] addresses this issue. President Obama

[9:47] saluted Kemp for remembering the lessons

[9:50] on the football field that bitter

[9:51] divisiveness between race and class and

[9:54] station only stood in the way of the

[9:56] common aim of a team to win.

[9:58] Kemp called Democrats not enemies, but

[10:00] opponents and even friends. He was a

[10:03] person who brought the same enthusiasm

[10:05] and energy to politics that he brought

[10:06] to football.

[10:08] Uh and you could tell whether it was a

[10:09] battle of ideas or battle on the

[10:11] gridiron, Jack Kemp threw himself into

[10:13] it completely.

[10:14] That included the fight to turn around

[10:16] the Republican Party as part of Newt

[10:18] Gingrich's Contract with America. He saw

[10:21] himself as a in some ways a John F.

[10:24] Kennedy Republican believing that if the

[10:26] economy grows enough, everybody will

[10:28] have a better future. This weekend as

[10:30] the GOP reels from election loss and

[10:32] falling membership, some are calling for

[10:34] a return to Kemp's way of doing

[10:36] business, bringing everyone onto his

[10:39] team.

[13:59] Racing fans are still buzzing about

[14:00] yesterday's amazing Kentucky Derby. In

[14:03] last place at one point, Mine That Bird

[14:06] moved up along the rail to win by almost

[14:08] seven lengths. At 50 to one, he was the

[14:11] second longest shot ever to win the

[14:13] Derby.

[14:14] Thoroughbreds like Mine That Bird are

[14:16] given the best care by their wealthy

[14:18] owners, but many other horse owners

[14:20] struggling just to support themselves in

[14:22] this tough economy face wrenching

[14:24] choices as we hear from Sandra Hughes.

[14:29] She's always owned horses, but Gail Kay

[14:31] says with cutbacks at work, she may have

[14:34] to give up her lifelong passion. Working

[14:37] for the state is very difficult right

[14:38] now.

[14:39] So I'm losing

[14:41] the money for to feed three of these

[14:43] animals.

[14:44] Even worse, while her paycheck has gone

[14:46] down, gas and hay prices have gone up.

[14:50] I I don't know what more we can do. I I

[14:52] really

[14:53] Look at those eyes. I just don't know

[14:55] what more I can do. Saying goodbye to

[14:58] thoroughbred Jenny will be the hardest.

[15:00] She needs a home and I can't afford to

[15:02] keep her too much longer.

[15:04] She's my baby girl.

[15:07] We've come a long way together. I know.

[15:10] I keep taking more. I keep saying that's

[15:12] it. We can't take any more, but then

[15:14] there's another sad story.

[15:17] Jill Star runs Lifesavers Horse Rescue.

[15:21] She's been flooded with calls and

[15:22] emails. Saddest is perhaps China, the

[15:26] first horse adopted from her rescue 12

[15:28] years ago. The economy has forced China

[15:31] to come back. But um

[15:33] she's come home.

[15:35] I never thought I would see her again.

[15:38] And here she is.

[15:41] But with 245 horses on her 46-acre

[15:44] ranch, she's reached her limit.

[15:47] It's the same story across the country.

[15:49] Animal rescues are full, so desperate

[15:52] owners are abandoning their prized

[15:54] animals. These two horses were left on a

[15:57] Nevada highway waiting for their owners

[16:00] to return.

[16:01] In 2006 in Riverside County, California,

[16:04] 70 horses were abandoned. Last year,

[16:07] that number almost quadrupled to 246.

[16:11] Those increases have led 13 states to

[16:13] consider re-legalizing slaughterhouses

[16:16] after successful animal rights campaigns

[16:18] shut down the last two in the US in

[16:20] 2007.

[16:22] In Montana, the bill is on the

[16:23] governor's desk. How is the United

[16:26] States going to dispose of 150,000

[16:30] excess horses each year? Horse lovers

[16:33] like Jill Star are appalled. I really

[16:36] want people to

[16:38] understand that this is a temporary

[16:40] situation that we're in. But even

[16:42] temporary homes are becoming scarce.

[16:48] Just ahead on tonight's CBS Evening

[16:50] News, fugitives from the law who get a

[16:53] break when they turn themselves in.

[16:58] Honey, we've got itches.

[17:04] The only medicine you need is Lanacane.

[17:06] It stops itching fast. Kills germs, too.

[17:09] One and only Lanacane, the every itch

[17:11] fighter. Everyone loves the taste of a

[17:13] delicious home-grown garden tomato, but

[17:16] planting a garden and trying to take

[17:18] care of it is back-breaking work. And

[17:20] after all that, your tomatoes can still

[17:22] end up on the ground and spoiled. But

[17:24] now, there's an easy way to grow

[17:26] delicious home-grown tomatoes without

[17:28] all that work. Introducing the

[17:29] revolutionary Topsy Turvy. It grows your

[17:32] tomato plants upside down, so there's no

[17:34] digging, weeding, or bending over. Just

[17:37] place your tomato plant into the

[17:38] planter, add potting soil, then hang and

[17:40] water. That's it. The sun warms the

[17:43] planter like a greenhouse, so the root

[17:45] system explodes inside. And because it's

[17:48] upside down, the water and nutrients

[17:50] pour directly from the roots to the

[17:51] fruit, giving you up to 30 lb of ripe,

[17:54] delicious tomatoes per plant, and

[17:56] they're ready to enjoy up to 4 weeks

[17:58] earlier than when you plant them in the

[17:59] ground. Now you can enjoy delicious

[18:01] home-grown tomatoes in sandwiches,

[18:03] salads, and sauces all season long. Make

[18:05] the best salsa or bruschetta you've ever

[18:07] tasted. Plus, the Topsy Turvy also grows

[18:10] mouth-watering cukes, peppers, zucchini,

[18:12] and herbs. It hangs conveniently on any

[18:14] size porch, deck, patio, condo, or

[18:17] apartment balcony. Your family will be

[18:19] amazed and your friends will wonder how

[18:20] your tomatoes grew so big, and all you

[18:23] did was plant, hang, and water. So why

[18:25] do all that digging, weeding, and

[18:27] back-breaking work when now you can

[18:29] enjoy delicious home-grown tomatoes

[18:31] without the work? With the Topsy Turvy

[20:17] over my head. Wanted for violating his

[20:19] probation for gun possession after

[20:21] skipping meetings with his probation

[20:23] officer. Walking on eggshells for almost

[20:25] a year and a half is a pretty

[20:27] dangerous situation. Potentially

[20:29] dangerous for him and his family.

[20:32] I was afraid that probation and parole

[20:34] would come and kick my door in. If you

[20:37] have a knife of any sort, please take it

[20:40] back to your vehicle right now. The

[20:41] Richardsons were among hundreds of

[20:43] Delaware residents who came to what was

[20:45] called Fugitive Safe Surrender, a U.S.

[20:48] Marshals program run with state and

[20:50] local authorities to clear outstanding

[20:52] arrest warrants. This opportunity is an

[20:55] incredible cost saver to the courts, to

[20:58] law enforcement, and quite a help to the

[21:00] communities.

[21:03] It took place over 4 days. Did this

[21:05] gentleman here take you in?

[21:06] >> With judges, attorneys, and even

[21:08] vocational counselors We always believe

[21:10] in a second chance. all under one roof

[21:13] of a church.

[21:15] We didn't come to be hassled, we came to

[21:17] be helped, right? The support of local

[21:19] clergy is a key part of the surrender

[21:22] program. Today pastors have left the

[21:24] pulpits, they've hit the pavements, and

[21:27] folks are coming because they trust the

[21:29] faith leaders. The people also trust

[21:32] their outstanding arrest warrants will

[21:34] be treated favorably, but mostly they're

[21:36] looking for peace of mind.

[21:38] Dave Malo had a warrant for theft. Well,

[21:41] you wake up in the morning, you're

[21:42] thinking about it. You think about it

[21:43] throughout the day. You're looking over

[21:45] your shoulder. You're worried about

[21:46] people recognizing your face. He came

[21:48] with his wife to get a fresh start. How

[21:52] can you enjoy life and how can enjoy um

[21:54] your marriage or your family when you

[21:56] have this

[21:57] this, you know, heaviness hanging over

[21:59] you? Malo was allowed to pay a small

[22:02] court fee and leave with probation.

[22:05] We'll celebrate every day. And after

[22:08] paying $589 in fines, Kairon Richardson

[22:12] will no longer be living under the

[22:14] radar. The biggest thing is I'm not a

[22:16] fugitive anymore. To the marshals and

[22:18] police, the program eliminates risk to

[22:21] them. Anytime a person surrenders,

[22:25] that's one less foot chase, one less car

[22:27] chase, and we see the results too often

[22:31] um where somebody's injured or killed as

[22:33] a result of a car chase. Arnell Wright

[22:36] had a handful of traffic violations.

[22:38] It's still intimidating when you come in

[22:39] cuz you don't know what's going to

[22:40] happen. By the end of the day, with a

[22:43] smaller than expected fine, his tickets

[22:45] were cleared. Right there. New destiny,

[22:48] that's what I got.

[22:51] Over the past 4 days, more than a

[22:52] thousand people surrendered in

[22:54] Wilmington, clearing more than 4,000

[22:56] cases, and only six of those people were

[22:59] arrested.

[23:00] We'll be back.

[23:03] If you've had a heart attack caused by a

[23:05] completely blocked artery, another heart

[23:07] attack could be lurking waiting to

[23:09] strike. A heart attack caused by a clot,

[23:11] one that could be fatal. But Plavix

[23:14] helps save lives. Plavix taken with

[23:16] other heart medicines goes beyond what

[23:18] other heart medicines do alone to

[23:19] provide greater protection against heart

[23:21] attack or stroke and even death by

[23:23] helping to keep blood platelets from

[23:25] sticking together and forming clots. Ask

[23:28] your doctor about Plavix, protection

[23:30] that helps save lives. If you have a

[23:32] stomach ulcer or other condition that

[23:34] causes bleeding, you should not use

[23:35] Plavix. When taking Plavix alone or with

[23:37] some other medicines, including aspirin,

[23:39] the risk of bleeding may increase, so

[23:41] tell your doctor before planning

[23:42] surgery. And always talk to your doctor

[23:44] before taking aspirin or other medicines

[23:46] with Plavix, especially if you've had a

[23:47] stroke. If you develop fever or

[23:49] unexplained weakness or confusion, tell

[23:51] your doctor promptly as these may be

[23:53] signs of a rare but potentially

[23:54] life-threatening condition called TTP,

[23:56] which has been reported rarely,

[23:58] sometimes in less than 2 weeks after

[23:59] starting therapy. Other rare but serious

[24:02] side effects may occur. If you take

[24:04] Plavix with other heart medicines,

[24:05] continuing to do so will help increase

[24:07] your protection against a future heart

[24:09] attack or stroke beyond your other heart

[24:11] medicines alone. You may be feeling

[24:12] better, but your risk never goes away.

[24:15] Help stay protected. Stay with Plavix.

[25:40] A father's emotional story in an Early

[25:42] Show exclusive tomorrow. The Taliban

[25:45] getting stronger, but are Pakistan and

[25:47] Afghanistan doing enough to help fight

[25:48] back? A special report from the front

[25:50] lines this week on the CBS Evening News

[25:53] with Katie Couric.

[25:54] Finally this evening, of course, there

[25:56] was a big to-do last week over President

[25:58] Obama's 100th day in office. One person

[26:01] documents every one of the president's

[26:03] days for posterity.

[26:05] As Dahlia Assuras now shows us.

[26:08] Wherever the president goes, whatever

[26:11] Mr. Obama does,

[26:13] almost every moment is captured by that

[26:16] man scrambling to stay out of view.

[26:19] That's official White House photographer

[26:21] Pete Souza. My primary mission is to

[26:25] document his presidency for history. I

[26:27] mean, I take that

[26:28] role seriously. Souza has daily

[26:31] behind-the-scenes

[26:33] access envied by the press. What are

[26:34] your favorite kind of moments? The

[26:36] unexpected ones. The ones that can only

[26:39] happen once and they'll never never

[26:41] repeat themselves. There's the day the

[26:43] president met with sick kids from across

[26:45] the country and then offhandedly invited

[26:47] them to use his daughter's new swing

[26:49] set. Back in the Oval Office, this is

[26:51] him looking out the window and the kids

[26:54] had taken him up on his offer. So then

[26:56] he walked outside to see all the kids.

[26:58] It was quite the scene. Souza caught the

[27:01] president and first lady in a tender

[27:03] moment on Inauguration Night. And

[27:05] that's, you know, it's such a priceless

[27:07] picture and you see the staff and the

[27:09] Secret Service in the background, you

[27:11] know, sort of not wanting to

[27:13] intrude on this little private moment.

[27:15] As for those private moments, I do try

[27:18] to give them some space and privacy

[27:22] after I've gotten a couple of pictures.

[27:24] Souza says it's the personal encounters

[27:26] the president cherishes, asking for

[27:28] copies for himself, including this one

[27:30] of daughters Malia and Sasha greeting

[27:32] him after an event. And then it was

[27:34] just, you know, just a genuine

[27:36] moment between a dad and two kids. A

[27:39] photo opportunity with the governor of

[27:41] Vermont took a twist. As soon as it was

[27:43] over, the president said to the

[27:45] governor, "Hey, let's move the sofa

[27:46] back." You can see the governor doesn't

[27:48] quite know what to do. Souza says Mr.

[27:50] Obama is easy to photograph. A lot of

[27:52] politicians are paranoid of

[27:55] the camera and they sort of watch every

[27:57] little thing that they do, and I think

[28:00] he just goes about his business as I go

[28:02] about my business. The two men aren't

[28:04] strangers. Then with the Chicago

[28:06] Tribune, Souza shadowed the new senator

[28:08] from Illinois during his first year in

[28:10] office.

[28:11] Souza already had White House

[28:13] experience. He was one of Ronald

[28:15] Reagan's photographers, but this time

[28:17] he's photog in chief. I get to see the

[28:20] president in all these great situations

[28:22] that other people don't get to see him

[28:24] at.

[28:25] Sometimes that means Souza snaps a

[28:27] thousand pictures a day, later sharing

[28:30] with the rest of us what only his eye is

[28:32] allowed to see.
