[description] Residents of Iowa are mopping up after extensive flooding in the state, but the water is rushing downstream, overtopping and breaching levees in Illinois and Missouri. The Mississippi River was overflowing almost every levee in Lincoln County, Missouri, just up stream from St. Louis, even before today's expected crest. The Mississippi River used to be 4000 feet wide in St. Louis; now it's 1500 feet wide, because of levees controlling the banks of the river. We speak with Bob Criss, Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis, about the role that levees... and human development... play in this year's historic midwest flooding.

[description] Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernake told Congress today the nation's economy is slowing, but waved off fears of a full-blown recession.

Three weeks of violence following a contested election have left 600 dead and more than 250,000 displaced. We'll get an update from Nairobi and then look at what is behind the violence.

They Got It Right: (6) Shibley Telhami
[description] Professor Telhami at the University of Maryland is the only scholar we've interviewed in this series who briefed Karl Rove five years ago on the fallout of war on Iraq. He speaks from a fascinating personal history. He was born into a family of peacemakers and conciliators in an Arab Christian minority in a village near Haifa in 1951, when Israel was 3 years old. In Israeli and private schools, his first degrees were in mathematics and then philosophy before he took up international relations with Kenneth Waltz at Berkeley and more recently: polling in the Mideast. So he is a social-science theorist with a flood of facts and factoids at his fingertips. Shouldn’t we be hearing more from the brave sages who pegged the dangers — even called the outcome — of the Iraq war remarkably, precisely right. This is a series of interviews with a slate of them. On my office wall I keep posted a quarter-page New York Times ad ad from September 26, 2002 — paid for by the signatories because the Times wouldn’t accept it as an op-ed — in which 33 scholars of international relations spelled out the reasons why “WAR WITH IRAQ IS NOT IN AMERICA’S NATIONAL INTEREST.”

[description] The Bush Administration may be close to a choice for the new attorney general. One of the leading candidates is said to be former US Solicitor General Theodore Olson. We speak with Evan Perez. He covers the Justice Department for the Wall Street Journal. We speak to Capt. Seth Moulton, special assistant to Gen. David Petraeus. Moulton is working in the south of Iraq to replicate what is happening in Anbar province, where local sheiks are working with coalition forces to fight insurgents. Reporter Monica Brady Myerov reports on the difficulties faced by some families when soldiers return home from duty in Iraq. Host Robin Young talks with blogger and author Jessica Valenti about her new book called "Full Frontal Feminism" in which Valenti dispenses advice for young women on how they can maintain feminist values and still be hip, hot, and happening in today's modern world. Two days after Buffalo Bills tight end Kevin Everett was paralyzed during a game, doctors say his cond
