I was told while in Iraq the commander was aware of my blog, but I felt I was justified in what I was saying, and I never said anything that could have been used against me as libelous or seen as seditious. However, as we were receiving our awards for serving, mine was conspicuously missing. It turns out that despite a stellar record and glowing recommendations from the higher-ranking officers that I served with and protected every day, the commander, a general, denied my award. I saw the copy of the rejected award myself with the box checked "deny" and the general's signature. It's still burns me up.

And we'll end this conversation with an email from Rod in South Bend, Indiana. I had considered writing a piece of mine regarding a supervisor of mine, a person who went out of his way to try to ruin my career out of personal dislike. I decided against it, thinking that it might come back to haunt me, as well as simply not wanting to stoop to that level. A month later my supervisor's boss was fired. Fearing reprisal, my supervisor quit the following day. Sometimes karma is more fun. We'll talk about the "Sex and the City" movie coming up. Stay with us. It's the Talk of the Nation.

This week, representatives from nearly 200 nations will gather in Copenhagen to seek an agreement on a strategy to fight climate change. President Obama will join the gathering later on. The United Nations Climate Change Conference is described as the most significant attempt at changing the course of global warming since world leaders met in 1997 to craft the Kyoto protocol.

I think there are probably, in 100 members of the Senate, you've probably got 40 people who are going to be good votes on this. And the question is: Can you find 20 more? I think that there is enough momentum up there to probably get them through 10 more, get some to 50. And then John Kerry, Lindsey Graham, Joe Lieberman are working to get the remainder.

I think there are a number of ways to do that. One, if you take what's in the Waxman-Markey, the House bill on climate and add what's been done on automobiles, that gets you over 20 percent. Similarly, if Senator Kerry's and Senator Lindsey's, Senator Lieberman's legislation comes to pass, it will have the right kind of finance mechanisms, I think the right kind of energy efficiency - that's the big ticket item: Renewable energy. I think that they're going to attempt to increase the cleaner fuels: nuclear and natural gas. And so if you get that combination, you get over 20 percent as well.

I think the opportunities that come from, really, redoing America's infrastructure, that's what the president ought to be advocating. That should be a major part of what people talk about in 2010, 2012 elections. We have just begun to retool and redo America's building stock. It's very inefficient. It's very old. And that's where it's a real winner for us to do so. It's a major job training program and it pays itself back over the period of time it's necessary.

We learned a lot from Kyoto. It was a brand new field. Nobody really understood climate change. There's much more awareness now in Copenhagen. The level of the science, the level of the technology is much, much higher. And then you have a political awareness. I think Copenhagen's already been a success in the fact that you've had dozens of heads of state are going to come and more than 100 have come to meetings that the U.N. has called over the last two years.

I think we've missed the boat on a lot of the efficiency steps that can and should be taken. You know, those are immediate steps that we can take. Second, in terms of renewables, I think we're beginning to make a dent there, but there's some much greater incentives that can be put into legislation on the industrial side that helps a lot.

Sure. So this is from about two-thirds of the way through the book and it's in the voice of Michael. (Reading) What do you fear when you fear everything? Time passing and not passing. Death and life. I could say my lungs never filled with enough air no matter how many puffs of my inhaler I took or that my thoughts moved too quickly to complete, severed by perpetual vigilance. But even to say this would abet the lie that terror can be described when anyone who's ever known it knows that it has no components but is instead everywhere inside you all the time until you can recognize yourself only by the tensions that string one minute to the next. And yet I keep lying by describing because how else can I avoid this second and the one after it? This being in the condition itself, the relentless need to escape a moment that never ends.

Sure. I mean, the truth is that I'm no stranger to mental illness. You know, my father committed suicide when I was 14. My brother indeed suffered from anxiety. And I've been no stranger to those states myself, luckily, for some unknown reason, not in the same severity of my father or brother. But when I came as a fiction writer to this material, I needed to find a way not so much to tell the story of my family but to tell a kind of counterfactual history, a sense of what might have been. Because I think in a sense we all carry some kind of guilt or regret about how we could have treated people we loved who were in trouble. And so I sort of needed that imaginary space to investigate that. And that was sort of the inspiration for the book.

Yeah, I think the question for the characters in the book is always what is first going to offer relief, but then what is it making of them? And I think - you know, I'm not a psychiatrist and I don't have a view or an opinion on what any person should or shouldn't do - but what I do want to represent and what I do want to get at is the often agonizing and difficult relationship people have to these medications and the back and forth because mental illness is not something that stays in place.

Well, I mean, it's sometimes said that you don't choose your material, your material chooses you. So I suppose there's a way in which when people go through the experience of seeing others close to them suffer or to suffer in that rather private and sometimes shameful way, there's a need to communicate. And one of the ironies or paradoxes of writing is that in order to communicate, you have to withdraw into solitude. And you have to concentrate for a good long time in order to figure out the words that are required. So - and that solitude itself can be healing. This book was a cathartic book to write.

And yet, the lawsuits are coming down the pike once again. A challenge brought by the state of Hawaii claims that the executive order would have a negative impact on tourism. Another challenge being heard in federal court today takes issue with the impact on refugees. And there is still a third suit, this one brought by six states, which wants federal courts to issue a hold on the order before it goes into effect Thursday. That's to give courts enough time to judge the order's constitutionality. The U.S. Justice Department filed papers yesterday asking the judge not to grant the injunction, arguing that the new order passes judicial muster. I spoke with the man leading one of the law suits, Washington state Attorney General Bob Ferguson.

Yeah. That's an important question. And you're right. There have been some significant changes. For example, the revised order no longer applies to green card holders. That's hundreds of thousands of people. It does not apply to folks who have travel visas already in hand. That's tens of thousands of people more. So we had a great success with our initial litigation.

The problem is, of course, is that at a fundamental level, two provisions of the revised order are basically the same as the original. That is the refugee ban and the travel restrictions on folks from those six countries. And because those have essentially not changed - yes, they've been narrowed but they essentially remain in place - we believe the injunction established by the federal court judge here in Seattle four or five weeks ago remains in effect.

That's correct. But everything else, if you compare the language of the original order and the revised order when it comes to the refugee ban without exception, they're virtually the same. And so our belief is that the injunction established remains in effect for the revised order.

So let's take a step back and just remember what your original case was and why you think it still holds with this revised order. Administration officials, including Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly, have said this is not a ban. It's a temporary pause on certain countries where we don't understand really what the vetting systems are, and they're not up to snuff as we see it. So what's wrong with the new administration in wanting to just double check these vetting procedures?

Sure. Well, the administration does have and the president has broad authority when it comes to immigration issues but those are not unchecked. It's our position that despite what the administration is saying now is what we're looking at is what Donald Trump said when he was running for president.

He said he wanted to create a Muslim ban. Rudy Giuliani, one of his key advisers, said after the election that Donald Trump asked him to create a Muslim ban but just make it legal. That is strong evidence that the intent behind these executive orders was actually less about national security and more about a Muslim ban.

So that's - that continues to be the basis for your lawsuit is this idea of intention when it comes to this executive order. But can't the administration just argue that they changed their mind, that even if the president had said explicitly on the campaign trail, I want a Muslim man, can't the administration argue that that is no longer the case?

As oil prices go up, interest in more efficient energy technologies is also rising. With one method, called combined heat and power, companies take the steam heat used to heat a building and use it to generate electricity as well. From Boston, NPR's Chris Arnold reports.

Environmentalists for a long time have tried to promote combined heat and power systems because they're very efficient. They're widely used in parts of Europe, but in the US, they've been largely ignored, in part because doing things the old way has just been cheaper. But that's changing.

Edward Dondero is director of facilities for Biogen Idec, a large biotech company in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He's down in a deep basement under a new office building where construction's under way on a combined heat and power plant. Iron workers and pipe fitters are sending sparks flying down from the intricate system of girders, conduits and water, steam and gas pipes.

The natural gas-fired boilers here will heat Biogen's buildings and make steam for its manufacturing process, but what's unusual is that same steam will also be sent through this turbine. Its spinning blades will generate enough electricity to power the nearly one million square feet of offices and labs here. Since the steam is doing two jobs at once, the system is twice as efficient as stand-alone boilers or electric power plants. Dondero says that's a lot more important these days. Electricity is getting more expensive here and the price of steam the company pipes in from a local utility has triple.

These numbers do not hold true for many regions of the US where electricity is cheaper, and a lot of businesses don't want to spend time and money learning how to do all this, especially with energy prices so volatile and unpredictable. But in more places, some businesspeople have decided that these more efficient systems do make economic sense. Frank Frankini is senior vice president with Equity Office Properties, which owns some 625 buildings across the US.

Equity Offices put combined heat and power systems into 19 of its buildings in those regions in the past two and a half years, and Frankini says he could see such systems working in as many as a hundred other buildings that he oversees. But he says there are obstacles. He says different power utilities have wildly different attitudes about this technology.
